I made 16 Stockings. 15 in two weeks..... I had a nice system so it seemed fairly easy. I first cut my 2.5" candy. (Four or five were 2" because I had that size candy. After the stockings were together and yoyos made, you can see the names machine embroidered in groups of six. I sandwiched them with the backing, 2 layers of flannel, stabilizer, top (which was a white fairy frost I used for the heel, toe, and cuff. I luckily found my pinking shears and then pinked around them. After poking a hole in the star I tied a 12" ribbon on them and looped it over the yoyo (red for girls and green for boys.) which was attached with a big button. Hubby was going to make me a false fireplace mantle to hang them all, but that was at the bottom of the todo list. He has the stuff for next year though.
