Christmas stocking too
Another quilt for the U of M holiday stocking project. Extra squares from the table runner project just seemed to have a happy holiday feel. I painted the red branch fabric to add a more festive feel in a branch fabric.
This project reminded me that even when you are trying to get something done, you should listen to your voices. I wondered if the white fabric was heavy enough to have a good feel, wasn't sure, and used it anyway. I ended up having to add another layer of heavier fabric as a compromise because it wasn't very good at all. The back still looks a little muddy because the gold fabric of the lining shows through, but there was no real solution except to completely start over on the body of the stocking. Next time, listen to those voices!
