Pillowcases were a hit all around last Christmas

I received a beautiful tote bag last Christmas, made with sunflower fabric (my favorite). I love it and use it all the time.

LOL... that wouldnt be a gift at all it would be a miracle here at my house!!! lol..

You know I dont think it would make a difference as to what the gift was. it would be appreciated just for the reason that you took the time to make a gift and send it to someone. But hey thats just MHO...

:

I totally agree with your last paragraph. When someone gives me a gift, even if I have something similar or one like it, I always appreciate the gift, because I know the giver was giving me something they wanted me to have and from the heart, if it is hand made.

I have already started (and finished a lot) for Christmas. A few table runners, a quilted photo frame (personalized with a photo), wine coasters, purses/tote bags. I have done a few more but can not for the life of me think of what they are.

Cute little drawstring bags. I love puting things in them.

Made some Draw string bags, big enought to drag to the beach, or a class, with a strap to toss over your shoulder, in fun colors, with a simple pocket for a water bottle or whatever, those went over well.
I think the little magic flip wallets are cute, but would consider a pocket on the side for change or c-card, pocketsize would be a good thing for ID etc.
But anything for the sewing room is good :)

A pincushion with steel wool for sharpening needles.
