The other day I found a red and black plain metal tin that I immediately loved and thought I would fill with chocolates and give in the big Christmas stocking I knit on the knitting machine. I was in Hobby Lobby at the moment and was passing by the fabric area. THERE WAS THE SAME FABRIC! So I had to buy it to make a stocking ornament.
After exploring YouTube a bit I found orangebettie.com who had a very easy pattern for a lined stocking ornament.
This is the ornament. It probably took 30 minutes from start to finish. If I wanted to make more I could do assembly-line and get lots more made in a short time. If I wanted it to be perfect, I could press it at various junctures, but chose not to get up from the sewing machine.
This makes me happy, even though it is not perfect. And I did not hand stitch closed the few stitches needed in the white fluff. Oh well.
