Advent calendar

Another project out of the basket . . . .

Anni Down's Advent Calendar
from A Christmas Story


i really like taking these close up shots




i actually took these photo's a few days ago 
and was going to post them to show you all 
what i was up to,  
but things have been very busy around here . . .
and after a late night stitching session . . . .
taaahh dahhhh



sorry the photo is a little dull, but i was  having trouble with lighting



so i took it back outside , in between the rain . . .
sorry Chooky but we have had alot, i keep trying to send it your way 
but . . .
it seems to like hanging around the coast 




i am not sure why but this is my favourite bauble

 i made a  bit of a mistake with the baubles, i cut out a larger size template
and it wasn't until i had almost finished all the baubles 
that i realised
my girls very kindly reassured me by saying
don't worry mum
it looks like our Christmas tree
full to the brim . . . .



i still need to get the marking off this
but couldn't wait to show you

i guess now i have to wait a few months before i get to use it


hope your all happy and healthy

It looks lovely!! I made the advent calender a couple of years back for a sample in a craft shop, and must admit I was a bit sad when I sent it off!

It has turned out beautifully. You might have a bit of a wait, but no last minute rush either.
oh it looks great...........you have been busy I love it............you could always hang it up for xmas in July...........it looks great........
oh yeh and send the rain........it hasn't arrived yet.........
I've always admired this advent calendar....it looks great...are the baubles removable, and you add one each new day of the advent?
