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.
Your stockings are sooo cute. Makes me wish I had grandkids to make them for.
