Two More Christmas Stockings

 While I had the mess of working with the blue jeans I decided to make two more.  These will be used as Christmas gifts for our saddle club party.  I will get a package of mini candy bars to stuff into the stocking and maybe use tissue in the top to hold it in.  Instead of using Christmas fabric I used fabric I had on hand that had images of horses for the toes and heels.

 I think these are my favorite stockings - the variegated rayon thread really is so pretty and the stitches show up pretty good on these two.  I tried, and almost got the horses running level which was a real challenge.

Until Later,
Lynn

Those are adorable...do you mind if I make something similar for my niece? She does therapeutic riding and is now a bit "horse crazy." I pulled out a bandanna to make a top cuff for the stocking...thanks for the inspiration!

Luv your thread choice. Goes very well with the color of the horses.
