    Anyone know where I can find a cute pattern for an advent calendar?

    Thanks!

    Good luck! I have looked for these puppies for 2 or 3 months without getting anything I really like. So, I am just making my own weird pattern. I did get a Nativity Advent Calendar in embroidery from one of my online embroidery places, but haven't really gotten it right yet. I will work on it for myself and one for a friend for next year.

    I bought a panel last week. It has a scene and some shapes that you fuse to felt and then attach with buttons. It's from Benartex and designed by Nancy Halvorsen.

    this blog here is doing an advent calendar sew-along.
