Good Morning Quilters!
My Christmas stocking project for my friend Lisa’s grandbaby is almost finished. I am going to buy some fake white “fur” for a cuff and then it will be finished. I sewed the baby clothes pieces together, quilted it, sewed front and back together, made a white lining, put a sleigh bell in between the lining and the stocking (so the stocking will have a little jingle sound when it is picked up). Here is a picture of the project so far:
Front: (the lining is folded over the front a little bit - I will cut it off even with the stocking before I add the fur)
Here is the back:
I have two quilts back from the longarm quilter that need binding. Since I am still in a funky no-quilting mojo mood, I can’t decide what color fabric to use to bind them.
What do you think?
Here are the log cabin quilts, the bed sized one, and the doll quilt that matches it….and two possible binding fabrics……or I could use something else. I’m open to suggestions.
And here are both possibilities on two sides of the little doll quilt…….
I could also use navy binding, but I’m kinda tired of navy, as I use it so often. But I could if you think it would be best. Thanks for giving me your opinions.
Also thank you so much for joining our Design Wall Monday Linky Party each week. I think my quilting mojo is slowly returning because of you all! You are a blessing.
Link up below and show us your pictures and link us to your blogs.

I'd go with red for the binding. Hope it will get you back into action!
I also like the red binding best, it just adds a touch of color to the edge. The light color just didn't look right. Blessings!
I love the red binding choice. That stocking is so sweet.
Definitely the red print. Thanks for hosting the link-up; it's so nice to see what everyone is working on each week.
What a cute baby stockiing!!!
I would go with the red on the binding. that is a stunning quilt
I vote for the red also, red and blue really compliment each other , it is lovely.
I'd use the red one. It captures the read in most of the blocks and completes the quilt. Cute stocking. The young ones going to love it.
Sorry to be a ditto head, but ditto on the red!!! It's the only choice. The baby stocking will be cherished.
Oh, me too, I’d just the red print for binding!
