My mother made me a quilted Advent calendar! Isn't it gorgeous?! She filled the pockets with chocolate, scratch tickets (haha!) and little nips!
(side note- what do you call those little tiny bottles of alcohol? you know, the ones that are on the counter at the liquor store, that are around a dollar or so? my family calls them nips, but Steve had no idea what I was talking about when I said that!)
Here is a close-up, where you can see the pockets with the numbers for the day!

What a beautiful quilt! That is amazing that your mom did that.
I think we call them airline bottles since they're what airlines use for their drinks?
That is so cute! :-) Your mom is super talented.
And I call them nips, as well.
they're nips... at least in New England
whacky midwesterners
I love your quilted Advent calendar! It is so beautiful!! I've never heard of nips either. We call them airplane bottles. However, I love the fact that you call them nips. I might have to start using that!
That might be the coolest thing i have seen in a week! That is awesome.
Everyone in nH calls "nips" nips.
That is weird about Steve not knowing that.
Wow, how lucky are you??? That is gorgeous! What a keepsake.
that is so cute! and love that there are mini bottles in there too, haha, classic.
What a pretty quilt! I love the goodies your mom put in the pockets. How fun!!!
I've never had a name for the little bottles of alcohol but I'll start to call them nips. I like it!
I've never heard of the word nips. Although the only thing I can think to call them is "tiny little bottles of alcohol"
That is such a fun idea! Quite the talented Momma you've got!
