Stephanie Devino, a senior from The Maryland Institute College of Art, came out on top in our contest to create a one-yard pattern for making a Christmas stocking. This was another close one! The runner-up by Nadja Petremand was second by a handful of votes, but all of the stocking kits are fantastic and would make lovely, unique, handmade gifts. Thanks to all the participanting designers!

New contest: Choose your favorite fabric puppet-patterns

 
Vote for your favorite puppet patterns

This week you get to choose your favorites from a bunch of really fun patterns for sewing puppets from a fat-quarter of fabric. I like this theme because the patterns offer the possibility of such simple, inexpensive kits. As usual, designers took different approaches to the contest, so you'll have to decide for yourself if the kit is really what the theme called for — a puppet pattern. Have fun!
