Here are the cute Christmas stockings I made for my family.  I used a simple stocking pattern and my mom embroidered the names for me.

I let everyone select their own fabric from my personal stash. My oldest son is more traditional while my younger son really loved the monster truck fabric. My daughter’s favorite color is pink so who says Christmas colors have to be limited to red and green?

Since we (sadly) don’t have a fireplace in our home, we hung them on a decorative shelf in our hall that has just the right number of hooks. And of course our little plush Christmas characters will protect them until it’s time for Santa to come fill them up!
