Quilted Advent Calendar 2020

 Oh!  Years ago I bought some panels at a clearance, for making cute little Advent Calendars. I always liked this particular design. Anyhow, this year I could NOT locate the Advent Calendar I had made for Ezekiel as a baby. Searched high and low. Nope. Gone!

So I put one together with my panel, even got to color December 18 (his birthday) a different color, and hung it up and filled it with chocolates.  Then I found the original one..... 

Another Advent Quilt

Several years ago, at a clearance sale at Quilt In A Day, I found these charming panels of pockets, to make Advent quilts. You stuff the numbered pockets with a treat, and count down the days until Christmas!  So, each year, as another child I know needs and Advent Calendar, I pull out a panel and make one!

Another Advent Calendar

One more this season!  Popular Gifts for families with school aged children.  this one was a kit purchased last year on the spring quilt run, at clearance.  Just one panel, with folding to make the pockets.  Fill it with treats and countdown ready!

Merry Christmas, Kaileena!

Advent Calendar

Just finished this one for a friend's two daughters.  It's a simple panel, but filled with treats to count the days until Christmas, it becomes a special tradition.

Merry Christmas, Mischa and Leila! 

Granny's Advent Calenders

Each set of Granny's need an Advent Calender to count off the days until Santa's Annual Visit!  One was a simple panel, all I did was cut, sew and quilt.  The other, also a panel, included selecting charms and piecing the corner blocks. Each one will be stuffed with goodies and hung to count the days.

Count To Christmas

Made a pair of Christmas Quilts with little pockets, an Advent Calendar.  The panel with the monkey-numbers was purchased on a quilt run last spring.  The blocks are charms; one cut from my scrap box, one a charm pack.  Quick, sweet, easy, for some special little girls!

 There is a little stuffed Santa Monkey that can travel from pocket to pocket to help count the days until December 25th. Candies or treats could be placed in the pockets as well.... but I suspect Little Girls might find that such a temptation!

Merry Christmas, Emma and Mai Mai!  Merry Christmas, Carrie!
