| Finished stocking with Christmas owls |
My sister wanted a Christmas stocking for her granddaughter. The theme for my grandniece has been owls. When she was born I made some owl baby things for her. Now my sister had been looking for a Christmas stocking with owls but was not able to find one.

| Templates in place |
I did a search on line for Christmas owls and sure enough, one of my favorite sites had them, Designs by JuJu. I picked out three that I liked and printed out templates to help with placement.

| Stitching out the first owl |
I used a pattern I had from doing stockings using designs from Embroidery Library. I did change up the colors because I wasn't sure I really wanted pink and purple owls on a red stocking.

| Detail of owl design |
I stitched out the designs and then sewed up the stocking. I added her name to the cuff before assembly using a font in one of my embroidery programs. It was fun to be able to make a stocking that fit my grandniece perfectly.
