what do you think as a first attempt?

ok i know..lol.. a pattern just for a stocking.

i also used an old cotton sheet for the lining on the inside, and used wadding too
here is a pic of the top

so i will prob finish it off by putting an organza ribbon bow on the top too, hubby said it was good but not very 'christmasy' lol.. well its kept me busy for an hour or too until my sewing machine packed up...
