Stockings


The last stocking was made and hung yesterday.  I'm pretty sure that I reinvented the wheel when I made them, but am very pleased with how they turned out.  By the forth stocking, I had it all figured out and went on to make a few for the Etsy shop (now that we are looking beyond the season and are ready to place our orders for the spring vegetable garden). 




Stop by Monday for the Holiday Tour of Homes if you get a chance.

Have a great weekend!

  2. I usually read your blog through Google Reader. Lately your posts have been truncated with directions to come straight to your site to read full posts, get links, etc. It's terribly inconvenient. Is there a reason you transitioned away from supporting readers?

    I like your blog, but clicking through to see if I'm interested in reading a full post isn't really worth it and I'm considering unfollowing at this point.

  5. nikinikinine, thank you for bringing this matter to my attention. I never use reader and had no idea this was happening. After checking the settings and making some changes, I think the problem is fixed. Please let me know if there are any more problems.

  8. Rene, love the stockings. I was going to make some and never got to it. Of course I don't sew much and it takes me forever to make just one. I need to do it more so it comes easy to me. Have a great weekend.

  10. OMG, Rene, these are great! I so love a stylish stocking -- since so many are tacky. Love the burlap one with greek key top! I'm going to make some for the family this year. Wish me luck!

  16. Very pretty, Rene! I love the simplicity and elegance of these. You are so talented! Along, with having classy taste, too. Are the first two made out of burlap or another fabric?

  19. I love them. I have a holey, very old quilt that may one day be recycled as stockings if it ever ceases to be useful.

  24. I really like the contrast between the country feel of the burlap and the modern feel of the top fabric.....very Modern Country, don't you know!!!!

    These are so lovely. Well done! I bet they sell like hot cakes!

  25. Just discovered your blog by way of Kim at Southern Saavy Style. I really like the simple but elegant look you have going here. I also really like the unexpected color pops with the large lights. I'm looking forward to linking to your party tomorrow. I'm a new follower.
