2024 CRAFTER’S ADVENT CALENDAR by Corrine Lapierre

2024 Crafter’s Advent Calendar by Corrine Lapierre

Make a charming and highly personal but also very mysterious festive decoration. Every day of the advent will reveal a new item to stitch onto the background to create a delightful scene that will be only be completed on December 24th.

Corinne’s boundless imagination has taken her to the woods where all sort of secret merriment is afoot. As always, she has chosen riches shades of soft felt and designed delightful patterns to bring this picture to life.

Each day’s envelope is numbered and contains a template, very clear instructions about which felt to use and where the piece(s) need to go on the background. There are also suggested stitch designs and ideas for further embellishment.

Each day’s stitching is designed to take around 1 hour.

The finished item can be framed, made into a wall hanging or turned into a cushion.
