Here are our stockings. Mark's is made in counted cross stitch.
Mine is done in needlepoint.
N's is also done in needlepoint.
This one she made for me when I was younger. It's counted cross stitch and embroidery.
We are so lucky to have these keepsakes. Each one has either "Love Mom" or "Love Mimah" (for the grand kids) along with the year she made it. I will try to get pictures of the ones she's made for my brothers' families and my aunt's family.It's snowing pretty hard here right now, but I think we are only supposed to have three inches when all is said and done.
It's a good day to stay indoors and wrap presents...

That is so cool that your mom does that!
Also, I must say, I love seeing my name on the stockings (I'm a "Christina," too.) Our name is not very common, so it's always a treat to see it! (Or am I just a weirdo who likes her name too much?)
I love the stockings. We don't actually have any! I hope I can get all of my "work" sewing finished in time to surprise Nick with some handmade stocking for Christmas this year.
p.s. Please send me some snow! It's pretty cold, but it would never snow here.
Christina those stocking are gorgeous and what a treasure!! I loved seeing them.
I hope N enjoyed his birthday he was a beautiful baby.
