Christmas Is In My Heart - Blog Hop!


Today starts Day 3 of the Christmas is in My Heart Blog Hop.  Christmas has lots of memories of spending time with my family decorating the tree and Hanging the stockings.  The stocking were the best due to we got them right away Christmas morning, before dad got up.  

I would like to show you one of our patterns that combines lovely flowers arrangement in a Christmas stocking.  Christmas Stocking Bouquet by Diana and Tina Dillard, is an easy raw edge applique pattern that would make a great gift or to add it to you holiday decor.  


Traditional
In the creating of this pattern we made two version in different color schemes.  Diana, made hers in a more traditional color scheme. She mostly used Kansas Troubles (Clara's Garden) for this project.
Holiday Magic by Henry Glass Fabrics
In my version, I played around with a lot of Fabric collections in EQ7, before deciding happily with Holiday Magic by Henry Glass Fabrics. These fabrics gave the stocking a modern feel.

It is amazing how differant Holiday collections can change a pattern.  Here are some more Christmas Fabric Collection variations for this pattern:
