pumpkinpatchquilter Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Wheewww!! For a small project, I have about 8 hours of quilting alone in each of these stockings. Then several evenings of work for beading, and hand sewing down the vintage lace binding and ruffle...but...I'm done!!! My daughters stockings are ready and waiting for Santa to come and fill with presents!!! They have never had stockings before, so they are pretty excited! LOL I'm not gonna lie, so am I!!!

lisae Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Those are beautiful stockings, Valerie! I love all the details! Did you use Cindy Needham's "scribbling" in the shadow areas? I love the effect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwilt-n-Deb Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 They are just gorgeous!!! And it only took you 8 hours, thats pretty fast, probably would've took me days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachside Quilter Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Gorgeous, Valerie! What a beautiful keepsake for your daughters. They are sure to be cherished for years to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkinpatchquilter Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Haha - thank you Deb! They took me 8 hours of quilting for EACH! LOL So more like, 32 hours of quilting...and then maybe 6 hours of hand sewing? I suppose in the realm of machine quilting that isn't too bad though... They are just gorgeous!!! And it only took you 8 hours, thats pretty fast, probably would've took me days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
