Stocking, done!

I finally finished the darling stocking for Carol, is this a sweet treat or what?If my fingers weren't numb I would even make one for myself, LOL! And check out the little button I put on the side ... it's actually the same color as the fabric (the large picture is true in colors, I don't know what the heck the story is with this small one, but you get the idea~ right?)
I quilted the front and the back before I secured the wool applique piece and it has a nice weight to it, I used a binding strip to cover the seams on the inside and then again for the top border. I just love it! And now to mail it
off to its new home, I'm so sad to see it go...I want one too! =(
