coffee sack stockings with a new how to

And the stockings were hung by the chimney with care...

I'm working on a few seasonal pieces for a shop update on Friday. This trio of coffee sack stockings will be part of it. I'll be back with a new addition to Simple Gifts. Oohh, and it's perfect for stuffing in one of those stockings! Now, I'm off to bundle up so that I can join the sun outside... on this beautiful, brisk day.

Update: for 2010 I'm offering a simple How To for your own stockings: find it here. Pin It

  1. Love those, I was just wondering the other day where I could get some coffee sacks for different crafts. i think I'll call a local coffee shop. Great idea for the stockings, can't wait to see what else you've got up your sleeve.

  7. Love them! I am also glad to see someone else uses a wood-burning stove as well. We heat our whole house with it. I just love it.

  10. Oh Sonia, that one is my favorite as well.
    I think the beautiful aroma of coffee lingering in this wonderful fabric will be just the thing Santa needs on the longest night of the year.

    I've got lots of stars tonight though so I guess I can't complain.

  16. They look great Maya.

    My local coffee shop has started selling their bags as "good for the garden/pet beds/sack races". I tsk on your behalf each morning. xx
