Victorian Stocking
Mimi Kaufman
A petite stocking features a cuff with a crescent heart tucked into interlocking
squares. The body of the stocking is a rich tapestry. The stocking is stitched
on eggshell/gold 18-count canvas with silk and metallic threads. The original
stocking uses an overdyed silk in rich red and purple, but could be stitched
with a solid stranded silk.
We will be able to complete the cuff and begin on the body of the stocking
during the meeting. You might even be able to finish the stocking if you stay
for our afternoon stitching time.
