Last fall, the very talented Stephanie Lewis displayed her beautiful November advent calendar at an enrichment, and I decided right there I was going to make one. It was gorgeous, and had so much detail. I finished it up this week, and can't wait for November to come so I can use it. A huge thanks to Stephanie for helping (and Janay and Ginnie :).
Each pocket has so much detail. Just about all of the sewing is done on the machine = takes a very long time!
We own one of those huge 20+ people LoveSac bean bags. Ok - it's not big enough for 20 people, but it's huge. The problem is, it doesn't fit very well in our house anymore... so this week I have been making smaller bean bags for the kids. I made this one out of Jeff's old jeans, but will stick to fabric next time - it was too bulky to sew. I plan on making lots more, they are so quick, you can easily make one, and the liner in a day.

I want one of those Thanksgiving things. I tried bribing Stephanie to make me one last year, but she said "I'm not making another one!"
So how did you make it? Was there a pattern? Did you cut everything out by hand or use die cuts? Sorry for all the ?s but it's so cute ... I want one!!
Both look awesome! I wish I was that crafty!!!
Nice... it looks so great. I think I am going to go work on mine right now! :)
Wow, that stuff is so cool! I may have to hire you to teach me how to make some bean bags for my kids, I never want to buy them because the ones at the store look cheap but are expensive. Yours looks great....and with a cute little Hayden on it? I love that guy! You are an inspiration for me to try to learn how to use my sewing maching!
