The Stockings Were Hung By the Chimney with Care

By special request:


2 new Christmas stockings for 2 very special boys. Hope you like them Jane!


For those of you who would ask: No, I didn't use a pattern. I traced my own stocking and added a seam allowance. The stockings are crepe-backed satin with a micro-suede cuff. They are lined with a green/navy plaid taffeta. The star is free handed and machine appliqued. The trickiest part--I couldn't use fusible interfacing for the applique because it doesn't seem to work with lame'. Instead, I scotch-taped the star in place and removed the tape as I got to each arm of the star.
