Hi everyone!
Welcome to the Sugaridoo Advent quilt along 2024. I’m so happy and excited that you’re here. Over the next 24 day we will be sewing together on our wonderful Christmas/Winter project.
24 packages
You advent calendar will include 24 packages. They are numbered. Some numbers, as 1 and 7, do look alike. In the image below you see the numbers to 10 to check you’re opening the correct one each day ;)
Extra gift
Some of you added an extra gift to the advent calendar. You can open that on on Christmas eve, it does not contain something that you need for the project.
One or Two
There are enough materials in your Advent Calendar to make the project two times. You can choose weather you want to make two projects right away, or just make one and safe the materials to add anothe one later.
Let’s do this together!
If you have a question, finished your work for the day, or just want to share something with your fellow advent quilters, drop a comment below the blog posts. You can even add an image to your comment if you’d like!
I’ll be here to answer questions, but feel free to help each other out as well.

See you tomorrow
Tomorrow we will start working on our advent project. Today you can get your machine ready, maybe give it a clean, and a fresh needle. For tomorrow you will need a pen or pencil and a ruler. See you then!
Hugs,
Irene
Hi Irene! I get the Advent calender as a gift today and I’m so happy! Yeah! I’m looking forward to the quilt along, to get to know the work of all the other quilters and all the surprises, we will get! Thank you!
Hi Karin! What a wonderful gift. Happy to have you on board. I’m so looking forward to the whole project as well ❤️
Yay I’m so excited, Irene! Can’t wait to start the project.
Yayyy! Zo leuk dat we nu echt zijn begonnen :D
My advent calender displayed! Excited to open these presents. Thanks Irene!
That looks just wonderful! What a lovely display you made with the advent calendar ❤️
I’m so happy, that the adventcalendar starts today. Unfortunately I can’t display it this year, because our new dog chews on everything for the moment, but it will still be fun to search for the right day in the box. 😊
Ooh a new dog, that is so fun! Enjoy the little pup and advent calendar
Little pup is already 4 years old and we are at least the 4th family she’s been to. Therefor she has a little separation anxiety, but I’m sure for next year, that will be better and I can put it on display again. 😄
Aah I see.. wonderful she found you as her new home! ❤️
Finally got to open the first surprise. From the contents my guess would be that we’re going to be doing a bit of sewing.
Hmm I have a feeling that you could be right about the sewing 😄
I love this white thread, it’s the perfect frosty shade!
It will fit perfectly with the contents of day three’s package!
Just opened my first bag and dusted off my mother in law Elsie’s old Bernina. Merry Christmas everyone🎄.
Those old, heavy sewing machines❤️ Often they will last for generations! I have a very old Lewenstein which still runs perfectly.
