Hi All,

I am from Ireland and when I first arrived in America I seen these beautiful Quilted stockings in Pottery Barn and now that I am a longarm machine quilter (beginner) I would love to learn how to make one just like the quilted ones they sell in Pottery Barn.

Does anyone have a good pattern I can follow for a Christmas Stocking???

Much much appreciated if you do!

Welcome. Christmas socks are easy. I'm sure you can find a pattern online. Use any applicate pattern for embellishment.
Here is a link for free patterns: http://www.bomquilts.com/Free-Christ...t-Patterns.php

Check out Nancy Halveron's patterns - i love her Christmas things. I expect she has a website, too.

Here is a link to the Eleanor Burns stocking...so easy to make, I am not sure what the Pottery Barn stockings look like but this pattern can be adapted to most anything. I took a lot of white, and white on white, silver on white and other white fabric variations and made the strip version with the red and green flower it was wow. I also have used it with vintage velvets and satins and embellished the top with bits of embroidery or lace, also wow. Have some fun....oh yes and it is great to use with old ties....www.quiltinaday.com/freepattern
