Every winter season we introduce a limited edition holiday collection to the Gussy shop, and I can’t believe it’s already time to share it with you, yeow!

I’m SEW excited to show off our 2011 holiday collection of Christmas Stockings. This year we have six unique designs, all in limited quantities. Don’t wait ~ once they sell out they’re gone until next year!

purple dot, red stripe, yellow damask

green dot, red gingham, holiday argyle

This season’s line is my favorite so far {–wink}! Each design is handmade from 100% cotton fabrics and features two exterior prints, a polka dot lining {+ padding between}, and a coordinating ruffle print. And of course, each stocking has a 3″ loop for hanging.

The backside of each stocking features a flipped pairing of the front two prints {the larger print on the front is the smaller “band” on the backside}.

So tell me — which design is your fav?

*Click here to see the full holiday collection!*

XO + happy Monday!

    This is such a great limited edition thing to offer during the holidays! So, so cute! All of the prints are so festive that I find it hard to pick a favorite. I guess, if I had to, it would be the purple dot. So sweet!

In May I gave a talk on Spiritual Mothering & Ment In May I gave a talk on Spiritual Mothering & Mentorship. This topic hits right to my heart and walk with Jesus!

I love, LOVE these particular topics. And if Iโ€™m privileged to know you in real life, you know I thrive on actually living out these topics. In fact, Spiritual Mothering & Mentorship have transformed my experiences as a friend and mother to my four young children, which ultimately has drawn me very close to the Lord.

During this insightful talk, youโ€™ll learn how to grow in your faith in Christ while mothering, just how beautifully God works in our lives to give us community, find a Spiritual Mother, gather inspiring book resources, and more.
