Make your own Christmas Stocking

When I fell pregnant with my first baby I knew I would want to make her a Christmas Stocking to last her whole life. 

I still remember visiting the Sewing Studio to choose all the fabrics for her, and to take a few hours out to make it for her in my then very new log cabin. It was one of the first times I had had some time to myself to say hello to my sewing machine that year and it was a lovely lovely thing to do at that time of new mum frazzled-ness.

I self-drafted the pattern, stitched it all up listening to podcasts and then put it away, just in case...
​
​
Three years later and another little girl was on her way to us, so I dug it out to make a second, with another visit to the Sewing Studio and a new set of fabrics chosen - baby number 2 was also furnished with a stocking!

When I started my business and teaching face to face sewing classes, I knew I wanted to do something festive and Christmas-ish with the same sew-cial focus that is inherent to all my classes and last year we had a fabulous time scoffing mince pies and drinking mulled wine and knocking out some lovely stockings!

​This year - not so much ( thank you Covid and Lockdown2 )

BUT - you can still make this at home because I have spent some time digitising the pattern and making it all pretty for you.

If you've never used a pdf pattern you can have a look at a video here which shows you how to assemble it.

The download comes with a print at home A4 file, a copy shop A1 file and a full photo guide to take you through each step! 

If you'd like to make one for yourself - you can download the pattern here
