Christmas Advent Calendar

Karen Smith is hoping to recover a Christmas Advent Calendar that she made. It became missing during their move to Texas with the military in November 2007. Their household goods were moved by the a company contracted with the military from Clarksville, Tennessee (Fort Campbell) held in San Antonio, Texas for six months, and then sent to San Angelo, Texas. The last time it was seen, it was in a long, triangular FedEx tube.

This is a felt Christmas Advent wall hanging that was machine appliqu�d by Karen. It hangs on the wall with a wooden rod. The border is trimmed in red satin ribbon and gold cord. There are 24 little felt ornaments that stick on with velcro. Karen used the Vogue pattern 2794 shown to the left. She's not sure if the calendar is labeled or not, but if it is she most likely wrote her name of the back with a Sharpie marker. She may have signed it "Karen Smith" or "Karen Pippinger Smith."

Please contact Karen through the Lost Quilt Come Home Page. (Please do not use this contact to request a copy of the pattern.)
