Sparkle for Noel - A Quilted FPP Stocking
Create a new kind of holiday sparkle with this exclusive, hand-made quilted stocking! In this festive workshop, you'll explore machine foundation paper piecing (FPP) techniques to construct a striking tree design with crisp precision.
We'll work within a bold, minimalist palette - just cream and red - to make your patchwork pop. You'll finish your stocking with elegant details like folded prairie points with buttons, accent piping, a toe strip, and light machine quilting done on a domestic machine.
