If you are a quilter, this is perfect for you with Christmas coming up! This listing is for an instant download of a quilting pattern for an Advent Calendar.
This is an advanced beginner quilting pattern that assumes you already have a basic understanding of how to put together a quilt. Each step is given in words and has an accompanying photo. If you are brand new to quilting, you still may be able to use this pattern, but you may need to look up video tutorials on YouTube for some steps. There is no video tutorial - yet! (I am working on it.)
Materials: Pattern is written for four different fabric designs for the front of the advent calendar (green version) but can easily be adapted to multiple scraps (colorful version). If you are going to use scraps, you will need scraps that are at least 4.5" square and some that are 4.5" wide and 5.5" tall.
I used Rifle Paper Co “Holiday Classics” quilting cotton for all the pictured versions.
