Christmas Mini-Stocking

Christmas Mini-Stocking
So make these Christmas mini-stockings to hang by the virtual fireplace on your computer monitor or anywhere else that would look cute. Yeah, I would have made the giant sized or normal ones but this time shrinkage is okay. Fill with treats and attach anonymously to computer monitors at the office for that secret Santa gift. Spread good cheer.

You can sew these by hand or zip through them with a sewing machine. Add a few details and you're done.

Step 1Dig for scraps...

Dig for scraps...
Since this project is so small, you can use your cloth scraps to make the stocking. You should have plenty left over to make a few stockings for friends and family.

You will need a larger piece of material for the stocking "body"
and a smaller piece of material of contrasting material for the stocking "fur trim".

You will need to print out an appropriately sized image for the figure that you want to appear hugging the stocking.

. I thought using K-man's avatar was pretty kewl. Imagine my surprise when I got to the last step. I'd have to vote for this one even if it were not up to your usual high standards. You should get at least three votes.
