I'm making quilted stockings also, but I'm putting recycled sweaters on the back side so they have some stretch. Husband requested "quilted but stretchy-so-you-can-cram-them-full stockings", took me a couple of years to find a solution for that request.

If I had enough fabric and embellishments to do do the second side of such a beautiful stocking, I would probably still do the back in a solid different fabric just so I could make another matching stocking!

First of all--your stocking is absolutely gorgeous. I think I would put a solid fabric backing on your stocking-maybe the peachy coral fabric would be a nice backing fabric if you have enough fabric. Beautiful workmanship

No opinion on that.... but I do "love" your stocking front.... I am making a "girlie" stocking for my gr niece but it needs to have a bunny theme.... (yup... I know... it is Xmas...but that is Mommy's request).... thank you for posting your picture, maybe it will give me a kick start!
