The Big Stocking Adventure UPDATED LOTS

I don't know about you, but I've never stitched one of those big Christmas stockings. I've done little ones, the mini size, but never a bigger one.  I am unwilling to spend all that money for the canvas, threads and finishing.   That doesn't mean I'm not envious of Katherine's adventure as she stitches a Susan Roberts' Queen stocking to match theKing she stitched for her husband.  Here's the adventure so far~
