A good idea too for Alex's stocking - I can never find a stocking big enough! In fact that is something I can do before she breaks up in about 4 weeks - yikes!

I don't think it's silly at all to spend that much time on them (um, have you seen the gift bag I KNITTED?!?). Then again -- I've been told I spend more time on the wrapping than I do on the present sometimes (which, come to think of it, is true). I'd have a hard time letting these go as well!atethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563533672161608587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-83533110818288818602007-11-15T18:51:00.000-05:002007-11-15T18:51:00.000-05:00I was just thinking about these, Tonya -- my first...I was just thinking about these, Tonya -- my first thoughts of Christmas. One of these days (years) I'm going to stitch up some of these. They are a great idea and because the bags are used over and over, they kinda hide the shape of the gift. Too cool.
