Some of you regular readers might remember I was a bit of a busy bee last autumn, making stuff for a Christmas Fair. And some of you have asked whether there will be a fair this year too.
The answer is yes. There will be a new Christmas Fair at Basnes, and I will have some stuff there this year too. Christmas stockings, for one.
So it is about time to get cracking. I have set up a little Christmas workshop in my studio. This is the outcome so far. A pair of stockings in the making, utilizing old lace, ribbon and some such.
Another pair is also on the go, making use of snippets and small scraps of fabric. Mostly in blue and white (with a bit of Cath and GreenGate thrown in for good measure).
These stockings are such fun to make. A bit of candle light and some Christmas music to set the mood, and time just flies, making it almost hard to leave my little studio at the end of the day.
(Despite my previous resistance, I seem to be getting into all things Christmassy...)

Julestrømpene dine er så vakre.
To venner herfra har tenkt seg til Basnes.
Her er det også forberedelser til julemarked som vi har neste lørdag, den 19.
Det er mye som skal på plass, men det pleier å gå bra.
Ha en fin kveld, klem Laila
Så fine julestrømper, Mia. Jeg forbereder julemesse med Husflidlaget her i Horten. Den går av stabelen siste helgen i november. Syr litt, ellers så går strikkepinnene varme:) Ha en fin dag. Klem, M@y

Your stockings are beautiful. That second picture...I just keep going back to look at because it makes me feel calm & peaceful. I could sit there all day!
Yes, Christmas is coming and you are getting ready. Such pretty stockings you make. And your sewing room is has a lovely view.
All this year's Christmas stockings are lovely. My absolute favorites are those made from the small pieces of beautiful blue and white fabric.
You are getting me in the mood, Mia. I must start my narcissus bulbs soon!
Hei Mia! Har laget noen julestrømper jeg også. Veldig morsomt- helt enig! Dette året har jeg "strikkenissesokkerprosjekt", dermed må symaskinen hvile litt. God fra Hanne
Gorgeous stockings and thanks for the inspiration.
