As burlap tends to be very organic and inconsistent, I did line them, as although I wanted them to be somewhat rustic in appearance, I also wanted them to be functional.
The stockings are going to be part of gift exchange on Gabriola this year, so the feminine one I've got some of my earrings that I created in, and Tom's been hard at work tying flies for the masculine ones - am loving the idea of wrapping in functional items :)
