- Stitch through the number holes, filling in the number while tacking it onto the piece of felt
- Thread the larger tapestry needle with embroidery floss, holding it double and knotting the ends together
- Sew the front and back of the stocking together using whip stitch, overhand stitch, blanket stitch, running stitch or backstitch.
- Repeat for all 25 stockings
Hanging suggestions:
- Braid 6 ft of embroidery floss and hang the stockings from it like a garland
- Sew or snap the stockings onto a fabric backing and hang it on a wall
