Fabric advent calendar REDUX!!

November 3, 2011 by Erin Heaton

Pardon me as I shift the focus toward Christmas again. I made another advent calendar for a friend and her son. I couldn’t help myself!

Advent calendar, part 2: Number clips

October 6, 2011 by Erin Heaton

Because the bags I made for my advent calendar we’re pretty heavily patterned, I decided it might be best if the numbers weren’t actually on the fabric (like with an iron-on transfer). So I came up with this number/clip combo. It allows for pinning the bags to a ribbon/string, garland or even Christmas tree branches. […]
