Each stocking is unique. They are all made in the same manner as my quilts, composed improvisationally without patterns. I start by making groupings of colors and textures of fabrics. I had fun making these. I grew up with a Christmas stocking each year being a very big deal. I think its cool that something I made could be etched in your memory the way my childhood stocking will forever be in mine.
Like my quills, all of my work is made with 2nd hand fabrics sourced from the fashion and interior design industries as well as vintage shops and estate sales. This way I get fabrics unavailable to anyone else and give some rad old fabrics a new life for you to love! The fabrics may carry a visual history of their previous life (wear marks in a pair of old jeans or the red wine stain of a linen tablecloth). These choices are intentional, showing the character of the journey of the fabric.
