These little stockings are not only cute but oh so easy to stitch up! I made five for my garland but you could easily make more to make a longer garland. You can also give the individual stockings as gifts, just fill them up with some sweets and attach a tag!

After I made them a few people told me that they thought the stockings would also be cute to use to “wrap” a gift card for Christmas.  I checked and a gift card does fit inside!

For each stocking cut two pieces from the stocking pattern piece and one piece from the cuff pattern piece.

With right sides facing stitch around the perimeter of the stocking with a 1/4″ seam allowance. Clip the curves.

Fold the cuff piece in half lengthwise and stitch with a 1/2″ seam allowance. Press seam open

Fold the sewn piece in half with the wrong sides facing each other. Press.

Turn the stocking right side out and slip the sewn cuff piece into the stocking.  The wrong side of the stocking will be facing the right side of the cuff and the raw edges of all will be even.

Stitch using a 1/4″ seam allowance.

  1. I love it! Do you know about how many mini stockings would fit per yard? I’m thinking about making a whole slew of them!!

  2. This is such a cute tutorial! I’ve been wanting to make this for two years now and I’m finally doing it 🙂
    Perhaps I am mistaken, but it seems to me that instead of a 1/2″ seam allowance with the cuff piece, a 1/4″ inch seam allowance would make the cuff align with the edge of the stocking better. Otherwise, the cuff would be too small (with a 1/2″ allowance), and the edge of the stocking would need to be eased in with the cuff.
