Skip the shop-bought stocking that's tired by New Year. In this one-day sewing workshop, you'll make a handmade stocking built to hang on your mantel for every Christmas to come. Handmade gifts carry something money can't buy: time, care and personality. Whether you're making a stocking for yourself, a new baby, a partner or the whole family, this is a gift that says "I made this for you." Invest in handmade, and make something worth keeping.
