Christmas Stocking Paper Pieced Pattern


I have this tendency to introduce garden, crab and flip flop patterns in the winter and skiers in the summer.  In an attempt to rectify that, I am introducing an appropriately seasonal pattern today!  


I fondly recall the treasures that my childhood Christmas stocking held.  That's why I designed this block.

I used Laurie Wisbrun's Brrr! Snowflakes in Red for the body of my stocking with Kona White cuff, toe and heel.  The background is Teal Shaded Cotton by Riley Blake--a great coordinate for Brrr!  It's available at Sew Me A Song.

If you'd like a copy of this pattern, it's available in my Craftsy shop and my Etsy shop.  This is a good pattern for someone fairly new to paper piecing.  It only has 4 seams that need to be matched, no curved piecing and no Y seams.

  8. I bought the pattern yesterday and just finished the stocking :) I have almost no experience with paper piecing, so it took a while to finish this block, but I am very happy with how it looks :) I will buy some other of your patterns for sure Amy, I really enjoyed making this project! :)
