Sewn Christmas Gifts

Don't forget to enter the Giveaway -- you still have time. It's open til Sunday!

-------

While most of my Christmas gifts were crocheted, I did manage to sew a few things. First, I made a sewing machine cover for my Mom in Law. She picked out the fabric and wanted a crazy pattern. So I just went with it. She really liked how it turned out, and I was glad to learn that I could wing it (no pattern) and make something fabulous!



I also made a cute little business card holder for my cousin. She works at a winery, so I thought the fabric would be perfect. I didn't have any of our full size Newly Wife cards, so I just put in my own (it needed to hold it's shape). I am supser happy with the final product -- and totally planning to make my own! Now... what fabric to use? Oh yes, and I used this tutorial.

Christmas Gifts

I finished up a bunch of projects as Christmas gifts. To read more about them and their recipients, check out their project pages.


June 15 - Pirate Can Cozy for my Bro

October 1: Diamond Ridges Hat for Kaitlyn (the bro's girlfriend). Plan is to have a better picture on the project page. So go check it!


September 27: Openwork Crochet Hat for Alex (little cousin)


After I made it, she let me know she doesn't wear hats that often. So she received this instead...

January 5: Gina's Shells Scarf


I also made October 6: Octoberfest Doily Blanket for a friend's new baby. Which I am passing along soon!


Lucky her! Anyone want that white hat?
