Ah…little girls and Christmas. I personally never had a daughter, but my hubby came with one and I spent a lot of summer’s pretending she was mine, spoiling her rotten and shopping for girly stuff. We only had the summer and then she was back in Calgary with her mother. It’s true, girls are filled with sugar and spice and all things nice, but they also change their clothes twenty times a day so maybe I’ve had a lucky escape. Laundry is not my thing. Boys, on the other hand, would wear the same clothes for a month, not that I ever allowed that! I had dreams about having a little girl way back when, but in the end, it worked out that I got the daughter without the labour pains and the stretchmark’s!
Girly things are so much more interesting than boy things. I’ve always loved frilly stuff. Crinolines and dresses with ribbons and bows and English Smocking. Velvet has always been a favorite. A little Christmas dress in blue velvet with trims of white…little black patent shoes and white tights; blond ringlets and dimples to pinch; little dolls that walk and talk.
I’ve designed a few Christmas stockings specifically for little girls but the big girls like them too. Christmas caters to the child in us all; except for Scrooge, I can’t imagine anyone not smiling over a stocking full of little treasures and candies.
The first stocking is Holly Days, designed for and hooked by Sue Cunningham who loves mermaids. Then comes Serenity hooked by Mary Schleck. The third and last pattern is the same design called Our Angel. Vivien hooked five of our stocking designs for her grandchildren.
