Directions:

• Draw or create a stocking pattern onto cardstock. I used an SVG cut file from the Silhouette Store and a  Silhouette Cameo Electronic Cutting Machine*. I sized the stocking pattern to fit on a 9″ x 12″ piece of felt and cut the stocking pattern using cardstock.
• Trace the pattern pieces onto the felt and cut them out.

• Cut the word “JOY” out of felt.  Hand stitch the felt pieces onto the stocking.
• Tack the Snowflake Die-Cut Ribbon onto the front of the stocking using silver thread.

• Iron the star patch onto the front of the stocking using the directions found on the back of the package.
• Align the front and back of the felt stocking together. Using a “blanket stitch” stitch around the edge of the felt stocking.
• Stitch a small piece of metallic ribbon as a loop on the corner of the felt stocking for hanging.
