Hi moonpi,

No they are just appliquéd on. :)

Choice quilts :thumbup: , love all the chritmassy designs, making christmas things is so much fun isn't it :P

All 3 are beautiful, but I think the stockings are just the cutes thing! Its such a neat idea that I am walking around saying why didn't I think of that!

beauteous maximus :!: :mrgreen: :!:

You are one heavy producer....and such great projects...........busy, busy busy :wink: :D :D
I love them

Thank you all for your compliments. :)

I learned when I was in the armed forces to make short work of many steps, when I'm working on projects, I use leader and anchor pieces, the only difference is my leaders and anchors are squares for future projects. I put two squares together and keep them beside my sewing machine, as I sew strips, I sew my squares together for my next project. It saves a lot of time... :)

When I applique, I will do several projects then sit down and machine stitch around them. Usually I sandwich the project so when I do blanket stitch around the applique, I'm quilting at the same time. I save all left over bindings in a bin and use them up on projects, adding what I need to bind a project, bigger quilts I cut the binding when I start and sew them together and put them aside so I'm not trying to track down the fabric to bind the quilt.... I learned the hard way, made a quilt and found I'd used the fabric for something else had none left for the binding.... Ooops! LOL :)

Very pretty! Did you leave the tops of the stocking open so Santa can stuff them?

Love seeing all you creativity!

Hmmm, well 2 Doods, I'm just going to have to make another stockings hanging and leave the tops open....that is a really awesome idea, thank you. :)

Ok my question is when do you sleep, you must sew round the clock! LOL
You do awesome work..Love the stockings. :wink:

All three are beautiful, but the snowflakes really catch my eye :D :D :D

Hey Shadow, As always BEAUTIFUL work, Love your color choices & your ideas. Keep up the Great work!! :wink:
