It is made from a purchased Christmas stocking found in every store at this time of the year. The directions are very thorough so be sure to DL them and print them out. I selected the snowman from the Pfaff icon found in the Holidays selection. It is an appliqué design and I used a furry type of felt for his body.
There is also a really cute appliqué snowman in the built-in designs on the Viking Epic that would work as well.
I added my granddaughter's name to the cuff of the stocking and instead of a decorative cording, I used a grosgrain ribbon and embellished it with a ribbon stitch.
Since the fleece is difficult to hoop, I used Floriani's Perfect Stitch and then add Floriani's Water Soluble topping to the top of the fleece. This is a very festive way to give a gift to any little girl. Are your stockings hung by the chimney with care, yet?
