    That was even easier than the way I learned this year on Jessica Dayon's channel. I thought that was great, but this is even better. The only problem is that it does use more fabric. I'm going to try i anyway. Thank you!

    • @megelles
      @megelles  2 місяці тому

      Hi you will need two layers as you need the lining for the part that folds over the top of the stocking - it also will not show any seams when you have two fabrics. I hope this makes sense - if not please let me know

    Wonderful video, thanks. Just one question. When you have your four layers of fabric lying flat on the table, ready to be sewn, are the two pieces for the lining lying with right sides facing, if you want to do a lining with a pattern, rather than just flannel, or a plain white ?

      Yes, exactly. They are right sides together. cheers Lisa

      There are only the approximately measurement for the top the stocking 2-3”. But it does depend on the size of course. You can also experiment yourself with different sizes depending on the look. Happy sewing. Cheers Lisa

    Isn't the stocking way too thin without batting???

    • @megelles

      Hi Gena. Yes, you can add a layer of batting.
      Put the batting onto the back of the outer fabrics. You can then quilt it. Or you can use an iron-on Pellon or interfacing - iron it onto the wrong side of the outer fabrics.
      Then use my method. It works extremely well. Happy sewing. Cheers Lisa

      Hi @billbottoms8295,
      Thank you for your interest in the pattern. The usual response is to ask for the pattern template link.
      Best regards, Lisa
