How beautiful.

I love this! As usual, your fabric choices are great, love how the little pockets just pop off the background.

Oh My! How cute is this?!?
You've outdone yourself once again.
Just. Love. It.

Perfect - my husband and I have an ongoing battle about picture-only advent calendars (my preference) versus chocolate or small toys each day (his preference). I love to quilt, so if he takes care of the kids and gives me time to work on the project, this would be a great compromise!

I really like your fabric choices. I hate the traditional Xmas colors!

What a wonderful project - and something I could even get done if I start now:) Thank you!

Love that! It's so cute how the dates are jumbled :)

Posted by: Audrie | July 27, 2009 at 08:15 PM

wonderful - do you know that i was just planning on the exact same thing? i was just debating weather to setup the pockets in a tree shape. now that i see your linear format and you have done all the calculation for me - i will do yours. one problem - my computer is acting up and adobe will not open the pdf file. could i impose on you to email it to me? thanks and cheers,
