Christmas Stocking Sewing Workshop — Sew Your Own Festive Keepsake
Made By Me Workshop
Sew your own beautiful Christmas stocking, handmade by you and ready & waiting for Santa to fill.
Join us for a cheerful morning of sewing, creativity and Christmas spirit. You’ll sew your own Christmas stocking — the perfect handmade touch for your festive décor or a thoughtful gift for someone special.
Rebecca (Chief Elf) will guide you step by step, from cutting your pattern to stitching and finishing your stocking beautifully. The design can be fully lined or simply faced (for an easier finish), so you can choose the option that best suits your experience and fabrics.
What You’ll Learn
- How to cut, sew and assemble a Christmas stocking
- Simple lining and facing techniques
- Tips for adding decorative trims and embellishments
- How to achieve neat seams and a professional finish
What To Bring
You’ll need to bring your own fabrics and trims:
-
Option 1 (Fully Lined): 60cm of main fabric + 60cm of lining fabric
-
Option 2 (Faced Only): 60cm of main fabric + 35cm of facing fabric
(Fabric should be at least 110cm wide, or 120cm wide if you plan to cut cross-grain.)
We recommend light- to mid-weight woven fabrics such as linen, cotton, drill, canvas, cotton duck, denim or cotton-linen blends. Choose fabrics of similar weight for best results.
If your fabric has a directional design (like stripes or prints running lengthwise), make sure you allow enough fabric to keep the pattern running the right way — especially if you plan to cut cross-grain.
This project is also perfect for using up fabric scraps or oddments — you can make each side different, patchwork them together (ahead of time), or even embellish your stocking with simple embroidery, ribbons, pom poms or bells.
(Lightweight cotton batting can be added for extra structure, though it’s not recommended for first-time sewists.)
Who It’s For
Perfect for confident beginners, ideally those who’ve sewn a simple project before. Absolute beginners are welcome too — the design is simple and Rebecca will help you every step of the way.
