Materials:

½ Yd. Fashion Fabric

½ Yd. Lining

2 pieces thin batting 18”x13”

Put 2 pieces of fashion fabric RST (Right Sides Together). If the fabric has nap or

directional print be sure the nap or print will be running in the same direction before

cutting the pieces. Place a single layer of thin batting on top of the fashion fabric layers.

Place 2 pieces of lining fabric RST on top of the batting.

Place a single layer of thin batting on top of the lining layer, cut into the stocking shape.

Sew through all layers from the top edge of the

stocking down around the heel and toe and up

to the top of the other side of the stocking.

Cut out the stocking pattern through all layers.

A rotary cutter can be used.

Now for the Magic: Reach in between the two

lining layers and pull the lining right side out.

Fold into loop, raw edges together, and place

inside stocking at top heel edge, with the loop

facing the heel of the stocking. Pin the loop so

that it will not get caught in the seam.

Stitch into place.

Place the raw edges of cuff (RS out) to the

inside of the stocking,

If embroidered, place name/embroidery design

against the lining inside and sew or serge the

top edges together.

Flip the cuff from the inside to the outside and

admire your “Magic Stocking”.

Instead of a cuff, binding can be applied to the

top raw edges.
