Christmas owls for Selena |
A few years ago my sister asked me to make a Christmas stocking for her new granddaughter, Tegan, and she wanted owls on it. I found them at Designs by JuJu. This year my sister needed another stocking for her newest granddaughter, the little sister of Tegan. She wanted them to be similar so I used the owl designs again but some different ones.
Design placement |
I chose the designs I wanted to use and printed out full size templates of them I then arranged them on the cut stocking pattern and used blue painters' tape to hold them in place. I marked the crosshairs with pins and then placed the fabric on sticky paper in the hoop and stitched out the designs.
Stitching out the first owl |
The pattern I used for the stocking is from Embroidery Library. When I bought some Christmas stocking designs for my grandkids, this pattern was part of the pdf instructions.
