Every year Stoffdronning is arranging an advent calendar for quilters in Norway. We make 24 gifts, mark them with a given number and send to her. She rearrange them and send one of each back to us. This year I was number 4, and that means everybody got my gift today.
I made drawstring bags for everybody. I find them so useful, I can keep my new stockings/tights in it and hang it with my dress. And if I put the dress in a suitcase, I just put the drawstring bag in, too. No damaged tights that way. And you certainly can use the bag for other things, too.
The three first days I got a mug rug, a Christmas stocking and a bowl cover. Next Friday I'll show you more of what I get in my calendar.

ReplyDeleteYour drawstring bags are so pretty and functional for so many things. What a fun thing to do with a advent calendar.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea -- the Advent exchange for quilters. Aren't we all still kids (at heart, at least)? How many people are exchanging gifts?
ReplyDeleteThe bags you made for everyone are definitely multi-taskers, and very pretty.
Such a good idea! Love your bags, looks like you can make a lot of stuff inside!
