Today we have a special treat from Camille Roskelley of Thimble Blossoms...
Hello there! Just popping in to show you what I've been up to over here so far this holiday season. Making stockings, of course!
Last year I made some new stockings for my little family (3 sons, one husband, and one dog). Everyone had their requests of what they wanted their stocking to be. The husband wanted something non-girly with no flowers. Check. Boy 1 wanted something simple, and picked out the fabric for the front and back of his. (Robots, of course) Boy 2 picked out his fabric, red, gray, dogs, even a tiny bit of red plaid left over from his baby blanket. Check. Boy 3 wasn't picky yet, as wouldn't be born for a few more weeks (he is much pickier now, at almost one year old). Easy. Dog? Dogs. He seemed happy. My stocking is made from the scraps of one of my favorite quilts. Perfect for me.
After showing them on my blog, I made the stockings into a pattern, and have since seen so many fun stockings made by my friends and customers. In fact, just this weekend I had two friends come over for a stocking party.
We made 11 stockings in about a day, and they just couldn't have turned out better. Aren't they cute? The stockings, and my cute friends, of course. (Thanks girls!)

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 255 of 255I would love to have this in my stocking!
My Daughter just bought a house and wants me to make them all new stockings that match!! This patter would sure make it easier!
Love the pattern. My boys (both in their 20's) were complaining that I really need new stockings for them if I going to put them up. I can't help that I'm sentimental!!! Maybe a new pattern would encourage me to update my kids stockings!!
I follow.
I left her some bloggie love:)
My Daughter really wants new stockings for her house that match!!! Could really use the pattern!! Love it!
So I can make some for next year.
I've been admiring these stockings since Camille showed them on her blog last year. I would love to have the pattern! No way I could get them done for this year, but maybe for next year???

Santa should send me this pattern as I have been looking for a pattern to make stockings for my son and his wife. They love the bright fabrics and want some that are quilt oriented. Thanks for the great giveaway.
Love this pattern! Ready for a new set!
Oh Santa I really need new stockings!

These look like they would be a fun family project!!
I would love to make stockings for the whole family!
All the stockings were hung by the chimney with care.....!!
I need these! I have to make new stockings for my family this year. We have two granddaughters and a new daughter-in-law. Please bring this giveaway to me Santa! :-)
I'd love to quilt some Christmas stockings!
I have some lovely fabrics that would make some wonderful Christmas stockings for some new family members. Thanks!
Love the stockings hung by the chimney with care. Or in my house'!
I would love to make these stockings to hang on my bannister. They would be so fun to make!
So I can make a stocking for my baby girl born this year!
Oh wow! I could fit lots of little goodies in a stocking like those :o)
I love these stockings and it just so happens my family needs new stockings....thanks for the chance to win this pattern.
I would like to win this because my family is in desperate need of new stockings. I have the fabric all picked out...just haven't found a pattern I like. Maybe this one?
What a good size for a stocking. I am not certain I would get another set made for 2011, but 2012 is certain.
I would love to make these for my whole family, a way to really unite us!!!
Santa knows I would use a pattern like that.
These are darling stockings. I am a big fan of Camille and her fabrics/patterns.
Neither me nor my husband have a stocking so I think we need this pattern so i can make some!
Would love the pattern as we don't have any stockings. Last year I decided not to use our 30 year old 'things' that had seen better days, and of course, have not made new ones
Where did you get the stocking hangers? They're perfect.
wow! These are so clever!
I would love to do some handmade stockings!
Have had fun in the past making stockings, but how much more fun and how much easier would it be to have a real, actual pattern?!
Would love to have this pattern and a stocking sewing party! Thanks for the giveaway!
A nice stocking pattern is hard to find. I really like the size of this one. Thanks for sharing with us.

LOVE this pattern by Camille....I need to sew some of this for family! Thanks!
This stocking pattern would be great for my Grandkids!
Camille is a darling and of course her boys are too. I'd love Santa to send me one of her patterns.
I may be too late?
I need to update my stockings I have five, one for me, one for my husband (gifts for our wedding from 31 years ago and I love them) and three for the children that have baby themes. It wouldn't be so bad if the children weren't 22, 20 and 9 now. Plus my dear granddaughter, who will have a brother or sister in June, and son-in-law aren't represented in the stocking department at our house.
I'm following now.
I've been following Camille for a while now. Left a comment there. Thanks!
Looks like a fun pattern! Sandi
I'm late to the party, but still love to see the great prizes for each day. Thank you! Kd of www.KdQuilts.com
Late to this blog hop but just wanted to comment on the cute stockings ! I've never made Xmas stockings and it's about time!
These stockings are my favorite!
I hope I could win - I love the stockings - Choose me!
I want this because we need new stockings.
That is a neat idea
Very cute stockings.
I would love to win!
Lucky, lucky winner. So cute. Love the stockings.

I just LOVE Camille's stocking pattern. I really hope this year I can buy one because it's such an adorable pattern. Camille is responsible for my newfound love of aqua and red. Before following her blog I never even thought of putting those colors together. Now I just LOVE that color combination.
THanks for all the chances to win! This has been a great event!
This would make a great stocking stuffer! This 12 Days of Christmas has been fun.
Fabulous fun, thanks to Moda.
No idea which ones I entered so I am just making sure I comment on all :) Look at those lovely stockings
Can't wait to see who wins!! Thanks!!
