Okay…now we are in September, I don’t feel so guilty about showing off Christmassy things LOL 😉
Recipe: Â 1)Grab a large selection of Christmas cotton fabric off-cuts, Â 2) Sew any which way (which, slowly, but surely, WILL drive you crazy!!), Â 3)Trim to desired stocking shape, 4) Sandwich with cotton wadding and backing and then hand quilt, 5)Repeat for reverse of stocking (Or, as I did, reserve a little sanity by doing a plain one with cross hatched quilting, 6) Add hanging loop between front and back pieces, bind, then hand stitched to finish!
A simple, sanity saving, hand quilted plain cream cotton reverse!
If, by this stage, you don’t feel compelled to take yourself off to the local recovery centre….try it all again LOL ….Take two!!
Okay…three solid days of craziness….I’m off to book myself in…right now ;-D !!!
