Advent Calendar Bags 2022


Yes! It´s still very hot summer, nevertheless the fabric shops are filling up with festive fabric collections and the very first preparations for Christmas are beginning. For my part, it means that at least one advent calendar has to be sewn till the end of summer. Some time ago, my good friend Alena asked me to sew advent calendar bags for her grandson, which was actually an honour to me. As I wrote once before, I am quite picky and there are usually only a few fabrics that meet my requirements. This time I chose beautiful motifs by the Czech artist Amélka

I made two colour versions to give Alena the possibility to choose: the red version made from Quilters Shadow cotton and a neutral version from a beautiful linen fabric, both coming from the shop of Aja Votrubcova.The pictures and numbers are machine appliquéd.


   





Happy (festive) stitching!
