It’s Amy from Nap Time Crafters and Peek-a-Boo Pattern Shop stopping in today. I love the holidays, so I’m thrilled to be participating in this fun series. Today I have a tutorial and FREE pattern for Christmas stockings to share with you.
I want these to last a long time so I went with a very traditional design and fabrics, and I went ahead and made 8. 🙂 I want to have enough for our growing family plus some extras for holiday visitors or family pets. Better to make them all now and have them coordinate. 🙂
All of my materials for this project were generously provided by The Ribbon Retreat. They have a great selection of Christmas fabrics and since they are all designer prints it’s super easy to come up with a set that coordinates well. Here’s a great selection to get you started:
In From The Cold
Aspen Frost
Angels Among Us
Holiday Frost
Season Elegance
Holiday Bouquet
For each stocking you need:
- 1 FQ in your main fabric: I used prints from the Moda Aspen Frost line
- 1 FQ in your lining fabric: I used muslin
- 1 FQ for the cuff fabrics (1 FQ will be enough for 2 stockings): I used the Icy Tonal White from the same line
- Ribbon for Hanging: I used Velvet in Scarlet Red
- Fusible interfacing for increased durability (optional)
Download your FREE pattern here and let’s get started!
One page will print out portrait and the other page is landscape. Make sure you print at 100% and just tape the pieces together along the page edges. If your printer clips a bit off just draw it in. Don’t overlap the pages at all.
Use a 1/4″ seam allowance on all seams.
If you are adding interfacing add it to the wrong side of the main stocking pieces before you begin.
1. Cut your cuff pieces to 14.5″ wide by 9″ tall. Fold in half with right sides together (RST) and the 9″ edges lined up. Sew the 9″ edges together forming a tube.
Thank you Amy! These stockings are awesome! I can’t wait to make some of these adorable stockings for my little family in fun coordinating holiday fabric. I can picture them all hung up with lots of goodies and prizes on Christmas morning.
Thank you again Amy for sharing your talent, tutorial, and pattern with us today! 🙂
