We all love and miss you Melanie ✝️. I was so tearful to see that you tube recommended this video. We never missed one of your beautiful tutorials 🧵. We know you are in a better place with no pain looking after your beautiful children and adoring Husband. Sending love and hugs to an Angel for Christmas 🎄❤️✝️🇺🇸
Thank you so much for this very thorough but still easy to follow tutorial. I just finished mine, I chose a grey canvas sort of looking background, the pockets I made of grey checkered flanell, lumber jack style, since I‘m going to give it to my boyfriend. For the numbers, I made ITH thingies out of felt (christmas 🌲 trees, foxes 🦊 and owls 🦉), to add some colors. I really enjoyed making this, and I‘ve been already asked if I could do some more for my friend‘s kids. I wish you and your family a happy season, thanks for sharing, from Germany 🇩🇪
Superb use of getting the most out of one fabric for all of the pockets. I plan to make one in the future, I'll use your technique. Very classy and simple; thanks for the video.
Thank you for this! My amazon order for an advent calendar just got cancelled and I have to think of something in a day before the workweek. Luckily I have all of the materials at home - and this will be made in a jiffy - thanks to you!
So, I forgot to post it earlier, but I went to the store the following day you posted the video and magic happened 🎄✨ Thank you for this cute and fun project. The girls were very happy and exited about their calendars.
Thank you Melanie for creating this video ! Your instructions are perfectly clear and inspiring 🤩. I’ll be making a couple of these for my family. Love this project ! 👌😍
Thank you for this! 🙌 I was shocked/bummed at how difficult it's been to find a simple, yet thorough, Advent calendar tutorial the past couple days that I've looked. I found a style that was exactly what I love but no tutorial. So glad I searched RUclips and found ya! 😁 I'm thinking of using duck cloth/cotton canvas for my background with black and grey plaids and prints. 😍 We're gonna go check out JoAnn's flannel sale tomorrow so I may choose something totally different. Thanks again for making this! 😘❤️
Fantastic tutorial! I'm newer to sewing and the level you taught this at is PERFECT. new subscriber! Looking forward to also checking out the blog. Thank you
Hi Melanie, I loved your tutorial and I am making four Advent calendars for my grandchildren. My will not look as professional as yours. I did not have quilted fabric, so I quilted two pieces of fabric and batting together. It was not easy since I made it the first time. I would like to get help with the dowel size. What whould be the thickness?
3 years later and I’m just seeing this 😕… Even though it’s already December I’m still going to make this 😊. I hope you’re well and doing ok.. Thank you 🙏💖
Thank you, Melanie! This is an excellent tutorial! Just hope I can get it sewn and ready before December gets here :-) So glad you're back providing us with new project ideas!!
So glad you did this tutorial as I am so fed up doing the standard advent panels. Love the background fabric with the quilted effect. Have you ever found the shapes have curled/peeled away from the background fabric once fused? X
