Crafty B's - get in the spirit!!

Ok, I'm having a bit of free time at work and some motivation, so I was thinking that I wanted to make Christmas stockings for the boys.

I just don't know where to start. I am a very good cross-stitch-er, but I don't know how to incorporate that into a stocking and I've only ever cross-stitched based on a patters, can you recommend a pattern?

Or are there other ideas I should consider?

I would like this to be their forever stocking, so cost and time is not an issue.

Please and thank you.

My mom is supposed to be making LO, she bought a book that has different patterns and you can incorporate part into another. I know that's not much help, but I've seen books at consignment stores too!

@winesconstantly this girl has motivation to make a stocking but not to google

Also this is the style, my grandma made them for us, and they are big.  Make sure they are big if you want them forever.

I'll try to find the ones I made - they are quilted and the names cross stitched at the top!
