I just love our stockings made from an old quilt. I bought Jason's, mine and Colt's at the same time, so they are very similiar and are about the same size. When Joy came along almost 10 years after Colt, I found the lady at the flea market who then had a similiar one, only a little smaller. Joy has always reminded us that hers was a little smaller too. :) Now 11 years later, I need another one. And I can't find one. And I can't find the lady that sold them. Sigh!
So....this is where I hope someone out there can help me! Does anyone know where I can find one similiar from an old quilt? Or do you make them or know someone who does?
We could use the size of ours or the size of Joy's; either one would be fine.
I've already searched Etsy and Ebay and found nothing similiar.
I felt guilty hanging our stockings with only four. Fortunately, Luke hasn't figured out that there are five of us and only four stockings.....yet. He has just claimed one and it's a different one each time, so he's okay. :) But I'm hopeful that I will find one.
Thanks for your help! Luke thanks you too!
And thank you for stopping by today! Hope you have a great week!
Hi Tammy:
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish i could go up in the attic. I think I might have some quilts stored up there.. I would gladly make a stocking for Luke.. If some of the family comes in, I'll see if they will go up in the attic and look... I have a piece of a 100 year old quilt down in the craft room but it's real pastel and would not work with all your others..
I'll keep looking...
Bless you ,
Maurine
