Gail's Trick or Treaters Stocking is Finished
My Squiggee trick or treaters stocking is finished! Hurrah!
Above you see the trim and the bottom of the peg it stands on.
And here is the stocking's back laid on the side so you can see the hole in the base where the peg is inserted.
This was a lot of fun to do. And very fast. The stocking proper is around five inches high and a bit more than 3 inches across at the widest point.

This is a great way to finish this! I may have to steal this idea!!
Feel free to "steal" any of my ideas, folks. The community of stitchers isn't just for social fun, it's for inspiration, ideas and help when you are stuck. So try anything I do and email me any ideas or help you can think of. That's why we are hanging out here in the Chilly Hollow of cyberspace, after all.
One thing about the peg idea--you won't know exactly the angle at which your piece will need to sit to be balanced until you actually try it. So don't do this for a piece you want just so.

Cynthia, thanks, and special thanks to the designer Gail Hendrix who was kind enough to watch me stitch and not giggle out loud.
HUGS!
