Quilted christmas stockings

This year I made new Christmas stockings for my family. I have been planning this project for quite a while and had decided on making quilted stockings. I just love how homey and classic they look. I decided that I wanted them to coordinate but not be exactly the same so I used the same fabric for them all, but different patterns. I'd like to say I took meticulous step by step photos throughout the process, but I worked on them a little bit at a time, over the course of several months, and…

Read today's post to see how to sew a patchwork Christmas stocking. And watch the video for even more helps for this easy method.

Edited to add that the pattern is available now in my Craftsy shop! Hope you love it. My seven stockings a-swingin' at my house. So glad I replaced the old ones! Hand embroidered our names on the cuffs. Backed them all in this candy cane print. Linking up! And crossing the stockings off my 4QFAL list: I've finished seven projects so far! Only 31 more to go! Just kidding. There's no way I'm getting that many more done. But a girl can dream, can't she? Linking up with Amanda Jean and Sarah…

There was very little happening in the sewing room recently. I started experiencing sewing withdrawal and needed some fun sewing this week. Itching to make something Christmas related, I floated the idea of replacing the kids' Christmas stockings to freshen up our Christmas decor. That didn't go over very well. Apparently, my sentimental teens like the ones I made each of them when they were born. I can't quibble. I wasn't contemplating sewing myself a new stocking to replace the one my…

As you know, I’ve long been a fan of all things Tilda. I think Tone Finnanger is an amazing and very inspiring designer and I have faithfully coveted every book she has written and every collection she has put out. Soooo…. today I’m a little nervous about my honest book review of her latest book, Sewing by Heart. Sewing by Heart is beautifully photographed and the instructions are well written. If you’ve been a Tilda follower from way back, you’ll know that some of the earlier books didn’t…

Can you believe Christmas is almost here!? While the leaves still fall here in Georgia, we are already creating for the holiday season. My lovely friend Terra recently found 2 vintage quilt at estate sales. One is pictured above. I'm so excited she found these beauties. They have so much history and yet, so much life left.
