advent calendar, sewing kit

ak's readymade traditional Christmas advent calendars were much loved and now you can create your own version using this complete sewing kit.  

When open during Advent, the calendar shows a traditional felt Christmas tree with a panel of 25 pockets each holding different felt birds, mini stockings, parcels or advent candles. Count down the days until Christmas by hanging a felt decoration a day on the tree.  On Christmas day, add a topper, fold up the bottom of the calendar to reveal a felt pot surrounded by parcels.    Personalise each decoration with initials or special touches to appeal to your family.

The kit includes easy to follow instructions and quality materials - just add your own needlework skills and some personal details.
