liz's christmas stocking

at work, we've been hanging stockings by our desks, to receive cute little goodies from each other.  my colleague liz asked me to make her one because i had to make myself one.  i haven't finished mine yet, but gave liz hers today!
the fabrics are mostly leftovers.  The green is from the st. patrick's day shirt, the woof/ruff flannel is from jimmy's pjs, the light blue is from june's graduation dress, the grey is from my sun dress of this summer or the cowlneck kangaroo pocket short sleeve top from a couple years back.  i cross-stitched an L on the faux cuff:
here's the back.  i was initially going to do matching zigzags...  however, time ran out.  so, i just sewed up quick colored strips:
the inside is lined with the owl flannel from the pj pants i made last xmas for myself that just didn't fit... (mom got them eventually).  i tacked down the owl flannel so it wouldn't wiggle around.
here it is, hung up by liz's desk!
