DGD and DGS. These are so fun to make and are great as a substitute for paper wrap. Last longer, too.

Love that busy fabric, so festive. One of the girls in my sewing class cut out a pillowcase to make for her niece, even embroidered her niece's name on the cuff, then got hung up on making a stocking for a nephew so one of the boys in my class volunteered to finish the pillowcase for her. I thought that was so sweet! She said she was going to stuff her niece's presents in it and put it under the tree as well.

And yes, both projects got finished!
