Today's block is the easiest block in the bunch. So it's a great one to warm up with. Especially if you might be having cold feet about joining in this super fun quilt along. Hahaha! Er, I mean.... HoHoHo!!!
Here we GO!
Christmas Stockings is a 12" quilt block.
Made using traditional piecing methods.
Finished size of block is 12” x 12”
Read through entire instructions before beginning. Press all seams open as you go.
STOP: Stitch, Trim, Open & Press. To perform the STOP method, align a square (A) or rectangle (C) on the corner of the unit (B) with right sides facing together. Draw a diagonal line and sew along this diagonal line. Trim a ¼” seam. Finger press the seam open and then press with a hot iron. Pressing the seams open to reduce bulk is recommended.
Step 1: Use the STOP method to add the White (A) square and (E) rectangle on the Dark Sock (C) rectangles.
Step 2: Use the STOP method to add the White (F) squares on the corners of the Dark Sock (G) rectangles.
Step 3: Along with the White (D) and Light Sock (B) rectangles, arrange and sew the units together to complete the block. Block should measure 12.5” square.

Sew cute! I know what I'm doing tomorrow!
you are so busy all the time - I can't even think of Christmas at this time of year LOL even though I know for most of us to make a Xmas quilt now is the time of year to do it :)
What a fun quilt a long!!!
I can't wait to get started!
This is going to be a favorite block! Love the block sizes and that they can quickly become a little quilt from just 1 block pattern.
I love your blocks! And the idea of starting for holiday gifts now is wonderful. Are the fabric requirements going to be posted for each block or is there a total requirements summary available?
This is going to be a very fun one!
Thank you for the great tutorial! I love the block and your fabrics!
Dear Patty,
The Fabric requirements are found on the quilt along page... The first post that was published on January 10th. Also the fabric requirements for each block can be seen in advance by downloading the free colouring pages. That link can be found on the quilt along page also. Glad to hear you are excited to quilt along!
The Christmas stockings gave me my first smile for the day :-) back at you girl!
Absolutely love them :-)
Omg, I think I'll be making this today! Emily from Sydney
I just cut out the pieces for my stocking block....just starting to sew them now. I will post a picture on my blog soon. Thanks for the fun quilt along! Gail
It seems I can't procrastinate any longer and have to make a decision on fabric before I get behind before I even get started. LOL
Making these today! So easy... Thanks for this QAL
