How to sew Christmas stocking for Advent Calendar

This is a lovely fabric from Makover. It has pre designed panel Christmas stocking and cutting line to help you get the right size. Each stocking has a different design and a number, so you can use them for an Advent calendar.




Here it is my tutorial. In fact it is not a tutorial, but I tell you how I made it.


It is nice that the fabric has even the how to steps printed on it. 


I cut all the stockings. Because I wanted to use different colored fabric for background, not just a single color for all the pieces, I cut the background fabric separately. 


I sew the top edge of every stocking. For the back, I sew the ribbon too. 


Then I put together a face and a background, wrong side to wrong side, and I sew on the edges. 


That's all. 24 mini Christmas stockings for an Advent calendar for kids. They can be hang on a bunting or they can stand alone. Ready for fill them in with sweets. A countdown calendar is a good method to teach your kids how to count, or to place in order the numbers. 


If you don't have for making an Advent calendar, you can buy the single one that I made. Visit My Etsy Shop Here.
