A gift for my chiropractor , he just had a little baby girl. So what better than a new Christmas Stocking, I was disappointed with the placement of the name . I added bling to some of the snowflakes. The large snowflake is layered organza flakes and then added a lace snowflake on top all designs are from Embroidery Library . The font is from Embroitique called buttercup.

Fabulous! I can see where they'd use this for many years to come. I think the name is great where it is. And that snowflake is so lovely. Thanks for the info on how you created it. Love it all!

It's beautiful! Your Santa is so jolly and colors are perfect! I love, love love the snowflake on organza. I need info how you did this,please tell, as it is the most beautiful one I've seen. The font and placement is lovely, just the right place and font. Also, how do you add the bling to organza, without melting it?...You know you may get orders to make the whole family, each one! That would be the best compliment from him!

I just stitch the design on organza , I purchase the rolls at the dollar store, burn the edges with a fabric burner, https://www.ericas.com/sewing/heatedtools.htm (stencil burner), I am not sure about this one mine has different tips. A wood burner will not work not hot enough. Here I just did a few in different sizes then placed a FSL . snowflake on top, then add the bling :)

I forgot to mention 2 layers of organza going in different directions, hooped for the snowflakes.

Thanks for the info and I'll take a look at the link. Is your bling a peel and stick, or have you hot glued the 'gems' on? I just love it! So if I understand, underneath the top FSL ( I can't do FSL successfully) you have a circle of smaller flakes, just on the outer edge? Sorry to be so persistent but sure would like to try this one day.

Hot glue gems. Some of the snowflakes I used Embird to place them with the designs. Then I went in and place a small mark in areas that needed something. Used my Janome 350E- 2 inch hoop , I loaded the different styles of snowflakes and placed them accordingly. I find with FSL you have to hoop the WSS very tight I use the non slip kitchen shelving , it goes on with the top hoop , then I pin around the edges , I also due this when I am hooping thin fabric. Hope that helps!
