Lorna says:
“I absolutely loved making my advent calendar and proudly hanging it up last December. The pockets allow you to fill it with anything you want – chocolate coins, sweets, messages, puzzle pieces. I will look forward to getting it out of the Xmas box each year. It’s a good project to learn some simple quilting techniques too. Having 5 hours to complete the project will hopefully mean you will have plenty of time to enjoy the process and start feeling Christmassy!! This would be really fun to do with friends too to join in the festive preparations together! “
