Advent Calendar

Over on the Altered Element Blog I have an advent calendar project which I made for my November guest spot. Sadly since I made it, Lynne has announced her decision to close. I feel so sad as she has been the most wonderful person imaginable to work for, and has managed to source the kind of goodies I had only dreamed of, and some I didn't know I wanted but now know exist. Where will we go now? I will let Lynne make the announcement in her own words here, but suffice it to say I hope very much that there are happier times ahead for her.

If you would like to know how I made this, pop over to the shop blog, but sadly as Lynne is not currently re-stocking, the Twiddleybitz calendar is no longer on the website. I hope it will give you a few ideas though, and is such a fun project to make!

  11. Hi Lucy - this is beautiful. Jo showed it to me (printout) a while ago but I avoided coming looking as I wanted to do my own which I have had two years! Eek!
    I can appreciate it more than ever now that I have worked on my own, such tiny apertures.
    Beautiful work as always from your talented hands.
