I'd never made one before, I'm not a seamstress, but watched my mom make several. I did this for our grandbaby. It is time consuming. Follow the directions exactly. Took me over a month working it on it 10- 14 hours a day. A more accomplished person would surely do it more quickly. I loved it though! Did not run out of thread, was 35 glass beads short. I bought another set of bucilla ornaments and took some from it. So now they'll probably be short. But it is a beautiful product, good value for the money Hopefully they will add more beads in the future though.

I love this stocking. Great scenery for Great Grandson in Vermont. I have been making these stockings for years starting with my children then for my 14 Grandsons ( that’s right no granddaughters). Now my grandson is having me a Great Grandson. The quality and beauty of these stockings will be around even when I’m gone for a great keepsake. Remember Granny!

I love this brand. This is the second stocking I’ve made this season. Reading the instructions is crucial. Set up the project and it will be easier. Some of the instructions seemed backward or wrong in my opinion, so midway through I modified how I was constructing it. I made a mistake on the deer eye and couldn’t really fix it as I had already stuffed the head and the stitches wouldn’t sit properly. (I forgot the white of the eye). Took about 50 hours to construct and it came out great. I used lettering from another stocking kit as the cursive wasn’t going to work for me. I wish I had made the name letters larger, but other than that I was very pleased with the outcome. Had some challenges but overall had a great time making the stocking! It’s really cute and Josh loved it!

This is my first Bucilla kit, but I have done plenty of hand sewing and embroidering in the past. It wasn’t difficult, although it was very time consuming! I spent about 33 hours working on it.Kit issues:- Some smeared ink from the printing left small black and white dots in places.- Was a few sequins shy in both red and white, but had many extra of the other colors.Overall I do recommend! Cute design and certainly a cherished family item with the dedication that goes into them.

I think if I had not been experienced in sewing and crafting, this would have been a daunting project. My mom had made a stocking like this for each of my children over 35 years ago and we used them every year. I want to make one for my new grandson to keep up the tradition and it turned out beautifully! I was determined to finish it in just over a month and it took that much time with many days of 6 to 8 hours of sewing, embroidering and stuffing. I may have overstuffed a bit, but it is gorgeous and my son and his wife loved it. They said the baby was spellbound by it and I know it will be something loved every year for his whole life. They can be a bit delicate, so I would not over stuff them. However, the one's my mom made did get used for over 30 years and are a bit worn, but lasted. Just found out I will have another grandchild so will have to make another one now.

This is my 8th Bucilla stocking that I've made, and the quality isn't as good as it used to be. The biggest problem was that the template didn't match the pieces in many places, leaving the dotted outline showing. I had to shave off the top layer of felt to remove the exposed dotted outline in many places. Some of the floss didn't match the corresponding felt pieces very well. The kit didn't include enough clear beads for the sequins. The directions were missing some of the steps. Overall, the finished product still looks nice and I'm happy with how it turned out, but it does have some areas for improvement.

I made this for my grandniece, who loves it! Excellent kit, with everything you need!

The only dislike for this product is I ran out of white thread and sequins, very inconvenient to go looking for the exact color of the missing items. Should at least put extra.
