A few years ago I found this flannel fabric on sale after Christmas and just had to have it! I bought enough to make four stockings, even though we didn't yet have a second child and weren't sure if we would. (Just call it a hopeful hunch!)
The pattern is by Terri Staats of Sweet Treasures, a designer who taught locally at the time.
I loved putting these cozy fabrics together and accenting with purple embroidery. These were quilted with a meandering stitch, also in purple, but it doesn't show up well in the photo. A zig-zag stitch accents the toe and heel of the stocking.
As a mommy, there is something extra special about hanging up handmade stockings each year and our family was thrilled to make use of that fourth one in 2009!!
