Last minute project. I have had this on my "to do" list for two months now, but nothing like waiting until the very last minute to actually get it it done. Pathetic. I stitched this baby up yesterday, and it was nice to actually start and finish a project. Seems lately I tend to not finish very much at all, without starting something new. Today was the deadline to get it in the mail, and I am happy to say that I met the deadline!
The basic pattern can be found over at Purple Panda Quilts (click on the button below) and was super easy to make, though I did put the hanging loop in the wrong spot, it still works, so I left it alone. This stocking is going to a foster child so that they can have their own stocking that they can keep themselves, even though they may move around year after year. I thought it was a super sweet idea, and knew I could contribute since I have an insane amount of Christmas fabric! I certainly hope that whatever child receives this, loves it because I certainly made it with love. Awww....so cheesy.
I used the Merry and Bright collection by Sandy Gervais and used fusible fleece on both the front and the back. I stuck with simple machine quilting on both the front and the back, and I just love this collection of fabrics together. This stocking is lined with the same fabric that I used for the cuff and it is a nice large size for filling up with lots of goodies! Now that I have started on my holiday projects, hopefully I can keep my momentum going! How are your holiday projects coming along? The countdown begins today folks!
