Materials and Tools:
4 sheets of brightly-colored felt
thread
1 sheet of white tissue paper
fabric shears
straight pins
3"-piece of ribbon
craft glue
large and small sequins, buttons or other embellishments
Steps:
1. Draw a simple fish shape onto a sheet of tissue paper to create a pattern. Cut out the pattern and pin it to the felt (figure A). Cut two of each felt piece, one for the front and one for the back of the stocking.
2. Cut out smaller shapes of felt for the fins, eyes and tail. Glue them to the front of the stocking with craft glue (figure B).
3. Shape the piece of ribbon into a loop, center and stitch it onto the back stocking piece (figure C). This will create the stocking's hanger.
4. Topstitch the two pieces together to create the finished stocking.
5. Embellish the finished stocking by gluing a large sequin or button to the fish's eye and smaller sequins or buttons on alternating scales.
