When my niece was born earlier this year I stitched a quilt to welcome her into the world and to keep her cosy for years to come. I firmly believe that the best way to celebrate milestones is with a handmade present, so for her first Christmas I have made her an advent calendar similar to the one that I made for Matt a couple of years ago. I decided to make a festive pudding, complete with squishy holly and berries and lovely big currants. I hope that she will look forward to the first of December every year when her pudding will reappear, filled with chocolate.
G this is amazing!! You should be selling these!
I bet you (& her mummy) can’t wait til she is old enough to have treats inside it 🙂 Lucky little girl x
We have filled it with grown up treats this year and me and Miss B’s daddy are forcing ourselves to eat them LOL
Someone has to enjoy it for her 🙂
Thank you Rachael! I may do a limited edition set for next year. They take so many hours!
Love it! I bet that pudding will be around for many years to come – such a lovely gift xx

Thank you so much Dawn! It took quite a bit of planning and maths and then lots of happy hours, hand stitching away.
Dan put it up this morning and we shared a scrummy Advent chocolate in bed with a cup of tea – of course I made sure Miss B participated……. we let her watch – Next year little one, next year!!!
That sounds perfect 🙂 xxx
