The Christmas Fabric I bought last week
has been cut and sewed.
5 inch squares were cut and sewed together in rows of 6 squares each
and that was enough to make two delightful Christmas stocking for the twins.
All my other Grandchildren already have one so Matthew and Alex needed their own.
Quilted them in the ditch and did all the finishing touches, then the fun began.......
Each square was embroidered with feather stitch in a different colour and embellished with charms.
Lastly the boys name were put on each of their stocking.
When I gave them to my daughter yesterday - her face when she saw what I had brought her and her delight at all the charms was really all I needed to see!
What a satisfactory job that was.
Have a stunning weekend!

Those are so cute. My sister loves quilts, and still has the bedspread my mom made. Your grandchildren will treasure these forever. You did a wonderful job.

What wonderful stockings! You have been so industrious while I've been on vacation - doing no sewing! Your family will treasure them forever and pass them down - and I LOVE the size - LOTS of room for Christmas goodies!! Love, Linda
