My First Christmas Stocking

I have been meaning to make stocking for the

my family for the last couple years.

I was unable to find the

perfect stocking pattern.

I wanted them to be traditional looking

with a sweet cuff,

so I merged several ideas

into one stocking.

This is my first one that I have finished.

The fabric is Evergreen with a touch of 25th and Pine

by Basic Grey for Moda. 

The cuff and lining is  Kona Khaki.

I used 5 strips of Evergreen

from a jelly roll to make one stocking.

I used Aurifil 50 wt. thread to quilt the stocking body

and Aurifil 12 wt. in red to add decorative

straight stitching around the cuff.
For the batting, I used
Thermoweb's Stitch N Sew Fleece.
It has just the right amount of loft for the stocking.

I am personalizing all of our stockings

using HeatnBond® Lite.

So no wondering on Christmas day,

whose stocking it belong to.

I also made coordinating buttons,

I just love the finished look

of it and can't wait to

finish more of them.

I love the old time feel to this stocking.
