Mini Felt Christmas Stocking

Another Christmas ornament which can be hung on the tree or attached to a present as a little 'extra'!  With this mini stocking, you can also give an extra gift - lollies, some rolled up cash, or perhaps some diamond jewellery(!).


Here's my stocking in a few simple steps:


1. Cut a template out of paper.  I folded my paper into eight and cut out eight templates at the same time.


2. Pin templates to a double thickness of felt.  (ie - two pieces, or one piece folded over)

 3. Sew around the templates as close as possible.  Remember to keep the top of the stocking open.  Remove pins.

4. Cut around the stitching leaving a small (3-5mm) seam allowance.  Turn stocking inside out.

5. Attach a ribbon at the back of the stocking, and hand-stitch a cuff to the stocking.

6. Fill with diamond jewellery (or other treats).
