Santa Claus is coming to town and your
family can be all ready to greet him on
24th December, when you stitch this
colourful stocking to hang proudly
A
homemade
Christmas stocking
is a thing to be
treasured and it can be
passed down the family for
generations to come. You’ll
find an alphabet chart here so
you can personalise the top of
your stocking, or you can leave
yours blank if you prefer. Faby’s
smiling elf is never happier
than when she’s working on
Christmas eve, helping Santa to
deliver presents to the excited
boys and girls. All of her many
gifts are toppling to the floor!
