Fabric for Christmas Stockings

Last night I cut up charm pack squares and sewed them together to make these pieces of fabric. The red & green fabric will be Ross’ stocking. The pink, red, and brown fabric will be my stocking.

Christmas Stocking Fabric

Now that I have this much done, I’ve decided that the fabric needs to be quilted. I have plenty of batting scraps that I could use. However, I don’t think the batting is right for the stockings. They’ll be too thick. These stockings are actually on the small side. I think I should use a nice thick flannel. I don’t have any flannel in my stash. Now, I need to make a choice. Do I buy flannel or use the batting? I really wanted to make the stockings with stuff on hand. Ugh! I have a feeling that I’m going to cave and buy flannel.
