Hi everyone! I’ve got a new pattern I’ve been working on as well as a store-wide sale to celebrate!

Back on my Patreon page, I often like to try out new projects and use my followers as guinea pigs 😅
Last year, I tried out making in-the-hoop embroidery designs, and one of the designs for a little dress-up kitty was a runaway hit! I’ve had many requests to expand upon the idea, and I took my time to really come back swinging. This time I made a whole advent calendar!

So to fill out the countdown calendar to Christmas, you get a little plush animal and then a festive costume or accessory to dress them in! All of these fillers are in-the-hoop embroidery files, so they stitch up quickly so you can hopefully have them all done by the first of December. There are 8 animals, including a cat, rabbit, corgi, mouse, polar bear, penguin, arctic fox, and otter. Then there are 22 onesies and accessories, including a narwhal, reindeer, Santa hat, Santa suit, Christmas tree, star, elf hat, stocking, snowy owl, gingerbread house, snowman, present, ornament, yeti, moose, peppermint, cake roll, hot cocoa mug, candy cane scarf, mitten, gingerbread man, and string light bulb.

Then to actually store these little cuties, they could fit into many ready-made calendars, like wall hangings that have 4″ pockets, or those little drawstring pouches.
But I also created a solution if you wanted to make your own. There are little stockings you can sew up and embroider numbers on the cuff (they’re not in-the-hoop, sadly 😅). They come together super quickly and if you have a stash of cotton prints they’re a great way to make use of it.

To celebrate the launch, the new files will be 30% off for the next week! Meanwhile everything else is 25% off. I hope you’ll give it a look! And if you do, I hope you enjoy it!

And for non-embroiders, I did put together templates and a little instructional guide if you want to be daring and try these without an embroidery machine. They don’t look quite the same, but I think they’re really fun if you have a hoard of festive crafty bits and pieces like pom poms, bells, ribbon, felt, etc.
