The Matching Stockings Are Delightful!

Create beautiful Christmas ornaments from your smallest, prettiest scraps. Charming stars cut into octagons are stiffened to hold their shape.

The results are delightful ornaments for decorating the tree, tucking into cards or a wreath, and dressing up wrapped gifts. They make lovely gifts too.

DIY Christmas Stockings Tutorial

The same octagonal stars are featured in beautiful Christmas stockings also designed by Ali. Pair charming prints with a neutral for the bodies of the stockings and choose coordinating scraps for the stars.

Once completed, the stockings are about 12½” high x 8½” at the widest part of the foot.
