This was the quilt I made for Ethan.  The rocket part of it was a pattern I tested for "the quilt pattern magazine" and I decided on wonky stars in the night sky to make the quilt bigger for his twin bed.. The table topper was a secret pal gift given to me from a member of Dalemead quilters guild quite a few years ago.  Sorry to say I have forgotten who made it and it is away with the Christmas decorations now. The felt poinsettia was made by me at the Indus Handicraft guild several years ago.
This advent calendar was made by me for Amelia.  It was a printed panel and the intent was that the pockets would be in a straight line.  I did not want to do it that way so found a red piece of fabric backed all the pockets and appliquéd three sides to the back.  I made the gingerbread men into pockets as well.  Numbers of pockets are not in order.
