I made this little stocking ornament last night. I used the pattern for these paper stockings to get the shape right. Super easy, and really quick. I think this took about an hour, from tracing the pattern to hanging it on the tree.
My mom made a bunch of ornaments when she was first married about 30 years ago. You can see one in the left hand side of the photo -- that plaid little bunny. Her ornaments don't have the stitching on the outside where the the stuffing goes in. How did she do that?!
Total aside: is this not the best photo I have ever taken? No idea how I did it. None.
Yes! Even before I read this:

I was thinking that you MUST have upgraded your camera... this is an AMAZING shot! The gold ornament glistens so nicely!!
Thank you! I'm still curious as to how it happened. I took another photo RIGHT after, and it is blurry as ever.
