WIP in a Flurry

I've gotta little something on the go...


Doing it in a bit of a flurry, for TGIFFriday over at MR's. (BTW, 23 December is the only spot left open for hosting between now and March - hurrah!).

WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced

But thought this lil Flurry project was appropriate for WIP Wednesday. You should see the finished thing Friday.
:)
It's a lazy girl's advent calendar. (Well, the really lazy version would be popping down to Kmart to get a cardboard one I guess, but there are some STUNNING ones online you can make... If you have a lot of time to sew and not much else to do... So mine is a quick-n-dirty. Well, not so quick and not really dirty either but... you get the idea. :)

    I Love that fabric, she is quickly becoming a favorite designer for me. I can't wait to see what your "Lazy girl Advent Calendar" looks like, I may need to make one of my own!

    Perhaps I could host the 23rd December - is there a list somewhere to tell me what I need to do?

    I won't have anything finished this Friday to post about. I will have to be sure to remember to go check the linky and look for your Advent calendar.

    Nothing wrong with quick and dirty! I like things that wrap up quickly (because they don't come along very often!) Yours is looking goof!

    Love those bright Christmas prints. I'm even lazier, I don't even bother with advent calendars, not even chocolate ones motivate me to remember lol
