Last year, I was lucky enough to be included in the 2010 Sewing Calendar by Accord Publishing. A feat which has been repeated again this year too, and earlier this week, my copies arrived.
As with last years calendar, this one has also been put together by Megan Smith, which is a huge task to undertake, as you can see in the picture above, it includes over 100 projects. There are 5 projects from me, Valentine's Day love letter, Wristwatch pincushion, and the Christmas Robin are already available in the blog sidebar,
but the Chicken Softie and coordinating Chick Finger Puppet are new.
The projects are organised throughout the calendar to correspond to yearly events, such as Easter and Christmas, and the display box everything comes in is designed to fold back on itself so it can sit on a tabletop and be easily accessed. Even though many of the included projects are available online, this calendar is a hugely valuable resource. There is no need to print anything out as everything, including templates (thus avoiding any problems in getting the scale correct), needed for each project is included within each project page.
I have the 2010 calendar, and I LURVE it. Congrats on featuring in the 2011!
