I just finished a few sewing projects. Since receiving the latest Ballard Designs I have been wanting to make burlap Christmas stockings. Four or five years ago, I made two of these, again inspired by Ballard at the time.
I used this as my pattern to cut my burlap. Last week, I bought brown and white burlap. I plan to make two stockings for Sophie and Savannah, then a few extra to sell in my booth at the Antique Griffin. {The Antique Griffin is having their holiday open house this Friday-Sunday}
These are the two we are keeping. Wanted to match the decor. I have decided to paint both wood "S" letters white.
Here's the start of another color.

Awhile ago, I bought these fabric samples from American Mills. One was a zebra set with a few different colorways, and the other the bamboo design. Each group was only $1! I had no idea what I would use them for back then. I am also using twine for the loop to hang the stockings.
