Christmas stockings! Yup, I know that lots of people are making them, but this will be a new thing for me and I'm linking up with
Melissa at Happy Quilting for TNT Thursday. I decided that they didn't have to be made out of Christmas fabric, that some nice modern fabric might be cool.

| quilted fabric, cutting both sides at once. I found a rotary cutter was faster and easier than scissors. |

| Measures about 10.5"x 17" before cuff |

| Auditioning red for the cuff |
I plan on embroidering names on the cuffs and lining the inside. Only 16 more to go! Yikes, I best get sewing (although, the thing that took the longest was choosing the fabric!). This was a quick fun project. I'm glad I tried it!
Stop over and see what everyone else is creating for
TNT Thursday at Happy Quilting!
Color Me Quilty!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! The fabric you chose is awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteI must make my 3 year old son a stocking and perhaps my mum - a project for next week. Your `red snowflake` fabric is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI agree with everyone - lovely fabric. Those stockings going to be lovely with the cuff and embroidery. Good job.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I love using a modern fabric instead of a traditional holiday fabric.
