Tristan Stocking - When my first son, Saul, was born I made
one for him, with candy canes, gingerbread men, snowmen and a tree. The sisters who owned Needlecrafts (now Village Ewe) suggested I sew on a bell every year. When I created a stocking for Sauls wife Vanessa, I used fir trees in various shades of green, to complement her beautiful red curls. She suggested I use the other characters for their children, so Tristan got snowmen, and a bell! |
