Húúúúúez really sounds good. I've started to sew Christmas projects. I want to win a package of fabric!
ONLY 73 days?! Good grief lol
Still, looking forward to seeing the fabulousness you've come up with, and what amazing prizes you rounded up!
Looks like fun! 73? Arghhh!
I'm so excited! I am hoping to make lots of homemade gifts this year!
Can't wait to see it all.
I am excited to see all of the fun ideas. Thanks for this blog hop, I love making gifts for the holidays.
What a great idea! Looking forward to seeing the projects. Between this and sewing summit, my brain in swimming in inspiration!
Can't wait, Jennifer! This sounds fantastic. I need some ideas for a few people on my list.
Just in time! I can't wait to follow along. I love tutorials :)
Wow. I need ideas so this is going to be fun. Thanks for a chance to win. Like the placemat idea. Best gift I gave was a quilt to my dad!
I follow. Thanks for chance to win.
Best gift anyone gave me - a used bicycle my dad found and fixed up and painted for me on Christmas Eve after I changed my mind from the bride doll that he had dressed for me with 13 different hand stitched outfits to fit a Madame Alexander doll. I was the only kid in the neighbor hood to get a used bike, but by noon on Christmas everyone wanted to ride my "special" bike.
When I was a teenager I gave service coupons to my Mom. I like to try to give things that my family have mentioned throughout the year that they would like. in addition, because our children are all grown, married and have families of their own, we give them a check and they tell us what we gave them. My parents and my husband's parents did this and it was a wonderful aid to our Christmas. I really appreciated the money and ability to decide what I would use it for, rather than what they wanted me to have.
I follow Ellison Land Quilts and am excited about the blog hop. Thanks for the placemat tutorial.
Wow... How wonderful, so many tutorials to help us create wonderful Xmas presents!!!
I hope I get lucky and win something, as well!
The Ipod case from the tut yesterday sounds like a winner. I loved the colors that were used.
Penny's tut on the bottle cap trivet is great. Very neat idea. I'll call the craft store tomorrow and see if they sell them - so I don't have to drink myself silly over a trivet. Ooops, guess I should look for nonalcoholic. :)
Really enjoying this blog hop. Some fantastic ideas and the tutorials have been written so well. Thanks for organising it.
