Dahlia Stocking

12/26/2012

As I predicted, I did not finish the last stocking before Christmas, but since I completely forgot to buy stocking stuffers, I suppose the point is moot. Nevertheless, I finally finished the last stocking this evening. I have to say, it is perhaps my most favorite yet. I used a reverse applique technique. The inspiration for the actual design came from a tee shirt I found on Pinterest.

Materials:
* Felt
* Thin fabric like muslin if your felt/background fabric is especially stretchy/thin
* Clear thread
* Fusible Webbing
* Pattern UNCHECK the fit to page box (The actual stocking needs to be pieced together)
(Also, both cuffs are included in this pattern)

Start by cutting all of the pattern pieces from felt. You will need to cut an extra stocking to serve as the background for reverse applique, so you will have a top and bottom to the front.

Dahlia:
* Sew the top and bottom of the front together
* Transfer the dahlia design to fusible webbing and iron onto bottom of front
* Sew following the lines of the dahlia
* Very carefully, using a seam ripper cut an opening in one of the petals of the dahlia, then use small scissors to cut as close as you can to the sewing lines you just made
* Repeat the previous step for all of the petals

For the remainder of the stocking, follow the directions for the Origami Stocking.
