Product Description
A Storybook Nutcracker Christmas to Stitch and Reuse Year After Year
Advent Calendar Panel from the The Nutcracker Collection
Create a handmade Christmas tradition with The Nutcracker Advent Calendar Panel in Green from Makower UK. Designed to be sewn into a reusable fabric Advent calendar, this beautifully illustrated panel brings the theatrical world of The Nutcracker to life with a rich, traditional festive palette.
The central design features a splendid Nutcracker soldier surrounded by ballerinas, toy soldiers, Christmas trees, rocking horses, presents, candy canes and other tiny seasonal details. A rich green background anchors the design, complemented by classic Christmas reds, softer greens, cream, pale blue, pink and warm golden tones. Around the central scene are 24 individually illustrated numbered pockets, each framed with its own combination of festive foliage, stars and decorative motifs.
The sewing is straightforward, with the instructions printed directly onto the fabric panel. The numbered pocket pieces are cut from the lower section of the panel, then folded and stitched into place around the main design to create 24 individual pockets ready to fill with small treats, notes or surprises throughout December.
Once constructed, the Advent calendar becomes a lovely piece of festive wall décor as well as a Christmas tradition that can be brought out and enjoyed year after year. Add wadding and a backing fabric to give the finished calendar structure and a quilted feel, then finish with your preferred binding or hanging method. Coordinating fabrics from The Nutcracker Collection work beautifully for backing and binding, carrying the collection's greens, reds and complementary colours through the finished piece.
The complete panel measures approximately 24" x 44" and is printed on 100% cotton fabric weighing approximately 145gsm. A charming Christmas sewing project for your own home and a thoughtful handmade gift for families, children and anyone who loves the story and imagery of The Nutcracker.
