I made drawstring bag Advent calendars for my children a few years ago because I couldn't find any good quality, resuable, keepsake Advent calendars in the shops. I had some fabric left over and made a few more. Then I found some more beautiful Christmas fabric and made a few more... I'd love it if one of my Advent calendars could become part of an ongoing tradition in your family's Christmas preparations.

I make all my calendars myself, at home, after the kids are in bed. Just me... and my sewing machine.
