I love the colors on this stocking and they look beautiful put together. The only problem that I had - and I have not had with any other Bucilla stocking (and I've sewn 17 this year) was that the horse was stamped backwards on the felt. So to get it to work on the stocking, I had to turn it upside down and then there was no pattern to stitch eye, nose, mouth, etc or no marks to help you place the other pieces. I took a photo of the felt (#s backwards and used that to help me put together the horse and judge placement of the other pieces).
Beautiful design, this is easy to make. Bucilla products are all excellent. Too bad this is so hard to find, they have re-introduced it but I like the older design better.
