  • Enlarge or decrease the size of the pattern, using a copy machine to make a stocking the perfect size for any gift.

  • Personalize a stocking by using a novelty print to match the person who will own the stocking.

  • One of my favorite gift to give my adult friends is a small stocking filled with sample size bottles from the liquor store.

  • Save your scraps all year and make a Crazy Quilt front on the stocking.

  • Add machine embroidery to personalize your stocking.
