The challenge was a stocking and a toy if you had the time. Well, I ran out of time for the toy but I finished the stocking!I made it from recycled denim! The white jeans I turned into a skirt for week one challenge plus some black denim from a pair of jeans I was given for the fabric. I could not be happier! Seriously, with every stage I was more and more impressed with how it all came together.
I hope you love it though. And if you want to make your own, stick around, sometime this week I will have the tutorial posted!

Very pretty, yes! love love the checkerboard effect!
It's wonderful Melissa!! and the brooch is a really nice touch. I never thought of that.
That is a ridiculously AWESOME stocking. I HAVE TO MAKE MYSELF ONE. It's gorgeous!!!!! Great work!!
And as someone who moved with two kids back in February (and the youngest was only 6 weeks then!) I totally understand and respect the stress involved. I hope it goes seamlessly for you!!
Beautiful, stunning, love it! Can't wait to see the tutorial although I think I can't make that!
P.S. Good luck with the move!
Beautiful! You're moving? How exciting!
Wow, that is one smart stocking! Love it :)

Melissa, I am embarrassed to say that I finally finished the Holiday Challenge... All three of the crafts I did not post in time are now on my blog. Hope you have a moment to check them out. I will put them on Flicker if I find another spare moment!
When we moved into our house (I was very newly pregnant at the time) I told J this is where we will live until someone moves us out when we are old and can't fight back. Moving is a pain in every place you do not wish to hurt. Hope you are starting to feel settled now.
