finish the unfinished

My family and I have moved into our new home and in the move I have unearthed so many unfinished projects, some I don't know if I'll ever get them done!  Oh and the fabric,  my stash from a million years ago, what fun to go through it.  Some I still love and others make me think what was I thinking!?  Here are some pics....

I love Japanese fabric and hexagons

I just finished this very patriotic Christmas stocking, I know, Christmas?! Well I had the fabric and made the little, tiny flag by paper piecing and it just occured to me to make a stocking, when the muse strikes!  The cuff is made from the last of a bolt of vintage linen from the 20's, I remember when I found it at a NYC flea market my heart was pounding, it was the find of the century for me....
