TELL ME MORE


In this workshop you will make your own customized fabric advent calendar, with pockets for you to add your own chocolate or gifts. All materials are supplied and all the pieces will be pre-cut, so you can get on with the fun job of sewing and customizing. You will be gluing on the numbers to the pockets of your choice, and then sewing them on to the background panel, before finishing the edges and adding a wooden dowel and natural twine to finish it off. You could also customize it by adding your name, or some other decorative spruces to make it truly unique. This calendar would also make a lovely gift for a loved one or for the whole family.
