I know it's been a while since we've updated around here! Things have been pretty hectic the last several months so I apologize.
Anyway, I thought I might do a fun post off interesting and fun patterns from the Vintage Patterns Wiki, that have a Christmas or holiday theme.

There must have been dozens of these "felt appliqued stocking" patterns over the years. If you go to enough flea markets and antique shops you will see some old ones for sale and maybe even guess which pattern was used to make them!
Here's a bunch more, all really cute. I especially like McCall's 2271's cat and dog stockings. Also, team member Kinsey Sue has Simplicity 4519 in stock if you're interested! Frisky Scissors also has a similar pattern in stock!
All of these patterns are somewhat hard to find, as are most patterns from the 1950s these days. They aren't impossible to find though, and turn up with varying frequency, though you can be sure they'll sell in a hot minute if the price is right. Very popular, and why not? Just look at how cute they are!

This unusual pattern is supposed to be a pajama bag, though I'm having a bit of trouble imagining what this might look like in real life.

Oh, more cheery appliques you could put on most anything. I don't recall seeing a table runner like that one before. Note it even has little pockets for napkins or silverware for your Christmas party buffet.

Speaking of adorable appliques, how sweet is that Christmas tree skirt? Not the kind that goes around your Christmas tree.. the kind that goes around YOU. Try it in red and green at your next soiree and everyone will stand in awe. ;)

Christmas then or Christmas now, felt makes it easy to make a festive decoration. :) I love how cheery these are.. I use a lot of vintage decorations like this in my own home.

I know I mentioned both of these last year, but they are my favorites! I love the little girl's appliqued skirt (perfect for ice skating!) and the matching "cowboy Santa" aprons for the whole family! How sweet! Did anyone really make these? I hope so. :)

Lest you think "Elf on the Shelf" is a modern invention, here are some cutie-pie pixies you can sit on your mantle this Christmas.

These 1970s stockings are so funny! I love the roller skate!
Still MORE cute appliqued ideas. I love the "Door Santa" in the top right pattern, don't you? Cloe's Closet has it in stock!
That's about all for now.. I hope you enjoyed! Please check out all the festive Christmas patterns from Pattern Patter Team.
