Denim Christmas stockings, I'm all caught up!

Several years ago I made new stockings for the family. Then kids started getting married and having kids! I got behind when we had 4 grands in 2 1/2 years! But tonight they are done, except for the hair on an older angel. Enjoy!

My goodness gracious! You are a genius! Where's mine?????

IBQUILTIN 12-05-2011 02:33 PM

Isn't it amazing how our families tend to grow and grow. There is always more love to go around, and your family will treasure these for years to come.

jillnjo 12-05-2011 02:40 PM

Those are all so cute!! Are they all hung on the mantel? Look like a farm family's stockings!! N.

oksewglad 12-05-2011 03:45 PM

A big thank you everyone. N--sorry no mantle in this farm house. We hang them from the chair knobs around the dining room table. One year I missed getting a little st stuffer for SIL. All in good fun, I found a broken evergreen branch and stuck it in. Kids laughed and thought this was great that Uncle H didn't get anything.BrendaK everyone's name is inked in someplace on the design. Is fun for the grands to check who's whose every Christmas.The stocking and first designs came from a Debbie Mumm book. As family members have been added I've scrounged around for just the right patterns (I am not an artist). These last were from a stocking design from an 1997 Quiltmaker magazine. Thanks again.
