It is almost that time of year again, people wanting names on their Christmas stockings. Last year I needed to put a name on a store bought stocking for my granddaughter. I chose the same font I had used on her big brother's stocking a couple of years ago.
I printed out the template and positioned it where I wanted it. I had to take the stocking apart so I could use sticky paper to hoop it so it would lay flat. I have also used the under the hoop method to stitch stockings but I decided this was going to be much easier.
I stitched out the name using a color I pulled from the design on the stocking and then quickly stitched the stocking back together. Sometimes it is not as easy as it looks to place a name on a stocking.
