I'm making Finn's felt stocking..similar to Tylers...holy good crap doesn't it take FOREVER? I'm just about done though. They are super cute! Love this post, pictures, everything..miss you!
I know, it's about 20 to 25 hours of work per stocking, so with my family of 6 I'm doing at least 120 hours of work. I'm working toward getting my personal Progress is Young Womens, so I've been adding the hours up for one of my big projects.
Just saw this. 25 hours? Maybe because I watch tv at the same time, but I feel like it takes 100 hours for one! I'm probably just really slow. I do one a year. I should totally count my hours for the day I get put in YW. Ha! I sure do love them though, once they're finished. :)
