Diary Of A Butterfly In Hindi Watch Online
Olegario Benford
For some people, online discourse is the only feasible way for them to publicly discuss the prejudice and other issues they face. This might be because someone is bedbound or housebound due to illness, or difficulties communicating in-person due to problems hearing, or because in-person social interaction is daunting and energy-draining. Alternatively, it could be because a deadly virus was decimating the population.
Truth be told, I think that those who grumble about the supposed inefficacy of online activism are just bitter about opportunities they regret not taking, and are jealous of those who have found success as a butterfly effect of taking those opportunities.
8:26 a.m. Wednesday mornings are for our academic sessions, so I have the luxury of eating breakfast at home while I watch an online lecture. I make my favorite at-home breakfast, a smoothie bowl. My go-to smoothie recipe is five ice cubes, half a frozen banana, some frozen spinach and cauliflower, a scoop of vegan protein powder, and almond milk. My beloved Vitamix turns this into what looks and tastes like silky-smooth green soft serve. I top the bowl with cacao nibs, chia seeds, and homemade granola.
6:37 a.m. Before I head out the door, I smear some salty almond butter on the banana I bought at the cafeteria on Tuesday. This amount of fat and protein should tide me over until I can eat breakfast after rounds.
4:46 p.m. Before the Friday night rush of new patient admissions, I eat that yogurt and granola that I had packed for breakfast. The protein will hold me through until I can sit down later and eat a real dinner.
6:15 p.m. I ladle out a bowl of chili and top it with a spoonful of Greek yogurt. The soy chorizo adds so much flavor, and the chunks of squash are a surprisingly nice addition. I also slice up the warm pumpkin bread and eat a thick slice, the melted chocolate chips getting all over my fingers in the most delightful way. Finally, I have a little bowl of pineapple and grapes.

Fabric requirements need to be enough fabric to cut two stocking shapes from two different fabrics. Fabric options I recommend include cotton and flannel as they'll give you more shape, but you could use polyester, wool, or other fabric if you want. These stockings probably aren't going to take a lot wear and tear, or need much (if any) machine washing.
For the small size stocking you will need an 11" x 14" piece of fabric for front and back outside pieces and another 11" x 14" piece for front and back lining pieces. 1 Fat Quarter would be enough for all four pieces, but they would all be the same.
With wrong sides together, cut TWO stocking shapes of both your outside fabric and your cuff/liner fabric. IMPORTANT: make sure your toe faces both directions for each fabric. (This is why matching wrong sides together will help you get pieces facing both directions.)
Now pair up one outside fabric with one lining/cuff fabric with the toes pointing the same direction like this. (See picture above.) Match the outside fabric and lining fabric from each set right sides together and sew a " seam along the top of the two pieces. Open pieces up and press seam open. Repeat for back side.
These mini handmade stockings are perfect for use as a small gift bag or festive gift card holder. (Fabric for these stocking includes Riley Blake Designs Wild at Heart collection, RBD Buffalo check flannel , Santa Claus Lane flannel candy canes, and Yuletide red plaid.
Unfold cuff again and take pinned loop to your sewing machine to stitch back and forth multiple times over the ends of the loop to secure them in place. Use a thread that matches the outside fabric of the stocking. (Although, once the cuff is refolded into place, it will most likely hide the stitching.
I suggest making a practice stocking just to see how it comes together and I guarantee each stocking you make after that will get faster and easier. This pattern is super beginner-friendly, and if you're already confident with a sewing machine, you could easily make a bunch in one afternoon.
Great tutorial. I will absolutely try out this one. I will have visitors from home coming this Christmas, for the first time since I moved abroad ten years ago. To make a pretty stocking for everyone to bring home feels like a great idea. Thanks for sharing. I am so happy I found your blog. You have helped me a lot getting into this wuilting and sewing world.
oh, and I did make a table runner just like yours, teh stripy one, for Christmas that I just blogged about. But I did the top layer seperate, didn't quilt it together at once. I was to scared to try it... Silly me. Next time I will.
What a great tutorial. Thank you SO much. I have a bunch of stockings I'm supposed to make and have been afraid to start because of the problems I've seen so many others have. I wanted to make really nice looking ones too with a lining so this is wonderful.
Have a wonderful holiday.
I love this! When it was posted on Ucreate it was stuck in my head all day until I could get to the machine to make one! I'm not sure if mine turned out as well as yours... mostly because my printer is shot so I just winged it and drew it out about the size yours looked! It still turned out pretty darn cute for just a few minutes worth of sewing! ?
This is a great tutorial, thanks! Emma, I too was trying to figure out where to sew the loop. I think I am going to sew them as is and then when they are finished I will sew a loop on with a button.

Great questions about the loop. The only way I've figured out to attatch a loop because of the fold down cuff, is so sew it right at the top of the lining after the stocking itself is completed. You should be able to hid the stitches on the outside underneath the fold down cuff.
I just came across this blog for this the other day. I am so happy to finally find an easier way of doing stockings. I do a lot of craft fairs my mine one is around this time of the year especially in November. I find these so beautiful. I am just wondering if I could add some ribbon for it to hang or make one of out of fabric.
Hi Amy, I've been making stockings similar to this to sell at a craft fair and lining them with calico. I stitch a piece of cuff fabric in between the outer piece and the lining piece. This also means I can add a hanging loop, by stitching the ends in between the cuff piece and the lining - I have the two halves of the stocking side by side to do this step, then flip them right sides together
Just had to tell you that I did a Pinterest search for Christmas stocking ideas today and smiled when your tutorial popped up -- I know that girl! ? Isn't it cool how these blog posts live out there on the Internet for years, continuing to inspire people? Thanks for yet another great tutorial.
This tutorial seriously saved my bacon! I was staring at my sewing machine trying to figure out how to line, and add a back to a cross stitched stocking front that a friend brought me, and I was at a total loss! Thanks so much!
The only way to do it with this construction method would be to insert the piping when you sew the seam between the two front and back pieces. But it will start and stop with the two side seams. If you want continual piping around the top, you'll need a different construction method.
Thanks so much for this. You're right, the more you make, the faster and easier it gets. I'm presently making as many of these as I can for a fundraiser for paying veterinary bills for those that cant afford emergency care. I attempted a few others that werent as good before deciding on this one. So, thank you! And Merry Christmas!
Hi Amy! I LOVE this tutorial! Thank you for sharing it with us all! My stocking came out perfect and is ADORABLE! I added a bit of fabric in a loop to hang it up, but when I do the liner lifts out of the shell a bit. Any suggestions for keeping the liner all the way down and in its rightful position? Thinking I'll have to hand stitch the seams together so its unnoticeable. Thanks!
This is so easy to follow. I don't particularly like watching tutorials on Youtube because the host talks so lengthily and it gets so boring that instead of finishing it you stop watching and make it on your own ( nevermind if it doesn't resemble like the one you really like. Thank you for this tutorial.
Late to the party, I've made a few of these stockings recently - but I think I'm doing something wrong with the first seam bit. When I turn my stockings right way out and turn the cuff down I have a rough edge. Quite the beginner here so can anyone post a pic of exactly how the seams should go - from front side and backside if possible. Im presuming that I have to overlap the material initially to sew together? Thanks.
10 years after your original post - thank you! I bought my first sewing machine a few months back to start making face masks and these stockings are so much easier for a novice like me. So cute and fun to play around with patterns and fabric textures. The instructions are very easy to follow.
