A Country Corduroy Christmas Stocking



In keeping with my goal of making one new Christmas Stocking each week, I made this one this past weekend. My plan for it was a "country" look. Hence, the corduroy fabric and plaid cuff and lining.

I need to read my own tutorial HERE, because I forgot to add the seam allowance!!!!! I decided to finish it as it was by sewing very narrow seams to make up for the lack of seam allowance. It did turn out a little smaller, but will be ok.

Here are the three I've made so far:

love the stockings.... I can just imagine the country stocking hanging in a rustic log cabin somewhere.

I like the way those look, Deb. I haven't made stockings in years. I made some for my daughters when they were little. I made them very country~quilted look material and I cross-stitched on the cuffs. I'm enjoying seeing your creations!
