Start the countdown! Sewing these perennial advent calendars is a lovely project and they’re suitable for the young and young-at-heart. It’s a great way to have a more sustainable Christmas as they can be reused year after year - just top up the chocolates! It’s only September and some designs have already sold out!

All advents are priced per panel. The sewing can be done by hand or machine (instructions are on each panel). With ‘super easy” calendars, you simply fold up the pockets and stitch into place. If ordering another fabric for the backing/binding/sleeve, add 1 metre (4 units) to your basket. For a coordinating thread, just choose your size and we’ll do the rest. Top tip! - it’s a good idea to match the thread to your backing/binding fabric.

Plus: we also have a ‘finishing pack’. This contains Thermolam wadding and plain backing/binding/sleeve fabric (1m) to complete one advent calendar. We’ll select the best colour of solid cotton to coordinate with your panel.
