This was the year of the handmade gift, it seemed, and I loved it! My dad and sisters made some great gifts this year! They are so special, I had to share.
I love this picture! Lily is holding on tight to the doll that Aunt Casey made her! I love it.
One of the most special gifts of all! A pulley train with blocks! Bobby has so much fun with it. Thank you, Pa Pa!
Initial blocks for the kids! Perfect for their rooms...
As what has seem to become a tradition, I made all the gifts for the kids and women on both sides of the family. It's getting harder and harder to figure out what to make each year, I don't want to do a repeat gift and I want the gift to be something they will love. I made over 15 gifts this Christmas! I even made something for Rob, a manly toiletry bag. :) I won't bore you with the whole list, instead I'll just show you a few of my favorites.
This is just one of the hooded bath towels I made. It is one of the easiest projects to sew, so I made 3 of them! One for both my nephews, and one for Bobby, of course!
I made computer cases for my sisters and mother-in-law. I am very proud of this pattern, which is my very own! I even conquered the zipper! That was the scariest part. The bag is padded and comes with a velcro pocket. I can't decide which is my favorite, I love all the fabrics!
These will be available soon for custom order in my shop, just stitch.!
I found a pattern for these back packs and just thought they were so cute! I made one for Bobby and one for my niece, Ani.
I already know what I am making for every woman in my family for next Christmas! I think it will be my biggest project yet. I plan on starting next month, believe it or not! I have 12 women to sew for, so I better get started quick! For now, I'm getting ready to update my shop, so check back in February! I'll have more kitchen towels, crayon rolls, and a few new goodies!
