Organized Chaos
I made a Christmas stocking for Anna. I decided to go with a “crazy quilt” design. I don’t know what got into me. I don’t do random very well. This thing took me WAY longer than if I had done an organized pattern. But I had so much fun with it!
One of the really cool things about this stocking is I didn’t buy a thing for it. I used fabric scraps I already had, and trim and buttons from my mother and grandmother. So it’s a multi-generational stocking, I guess.

Absolutely beautiful~ I love this!!!! There is a piece of my wedding dress on it (1971) which your dad beaded). How incredible! My talented daughter, I am so proud you belong to me!
It’s just beautiful, Jennifer. Anna will have this her whole life. Merry Christmas to you and your entire family. It’s SNOWING up here on Wye Mountain as I write this. Go look outside in Conway, I’ll bet it’s coming down there, too.
You did a great job on the stocking! I love all of the little embellishments.
Amazing!!!
Well done!! It’s amazing!
