Crown Pocket Stocking

Here's a slightly more urban version of the denim pocket stocking.  Once again, all the denim is recycled, representing at least five pairs of jeans and one large skirt.







Lone Star Pocket Stocking

Now for something a little different.  This stocking is made entirely from recycled denim and all the pockets are fully functional.  Stuff the inside AND the outside!  This particular one has a minimalist cowgirl design without a lot of flash.

Gone to the Dogs - "Zoey"

This is my first pet stocking, made for my sister's adorable little dog, Zoey.  It is also my first denim "pocket stocking," which is also made entirely of recycled denim.  Don't worry, it's been thoroughly laundered!  The heart-shaped pockets came from an old pair of toddler jeans, and are still fully functional.  I hope Zo-zo is a Levi's kind of dog.  At approximately 13.5" it is one of the smaller stockings, lined with cotton quilting fabric.







A later addition, the name tag.

Colt

This cowboy-style stocking was made for a distant newborn cousin of mine in Montana.  The saddle on the horse was made of genuine leather with as much accuracy as possible on such a small scale.  All the rope, bridle and reins were handmade of sewing thread.  The body was made of blue denim, lined with white satin.
