I had this idea of cross-stitching the names of my Grand-children and nephews & nieces on Christmas Stockings. Bought the stockings from a 'Cheapo' shop, and spent double what they cost on Aida band. As I was stitching the inside seam, I noticed a label....... *This is not a toy...Keep out of reach of Children* I've run out of profanities and expletives, so if you know any that are not common to the UK....... I'd be grateful !
Oh dear :o((

What made them unsuitable for children ? Did they have bits that could come off and be swallowed by a small child or something ?
I made Santa Sacks for my grandchildren, I used quilted Christmas fabric and made them pillow case size. I put their name and the year of their first Xmas on it in sequins. Then I stitched a nice big tinkly bell down inside one corner.
I am very glad I only have five grandchildren and did not continue the tradition for the great-grandchildren lol
