Okay ladies it’s time to get serious. If you’re making any of your gift giving splendor this year you’d best get started.

Holy Bizzoli…longest post ever:) Good work my dear!
Love everything. Especially the bag and the snowman kit.
Think I’ll be running my machine in to the shop asap.
Sad thing is…there were like 50 more I could have posted! Do you want to come to a sewing night at Gracie lou’s?!
Sew cute. I have been such a sewing slacker. I need to bust out the machine this week. I love the littel chefs hat, and I have been wondering how people make those cute journal covers. I need to give you a link to the cutest thing I have ever seen for little boys. It is like a crayon roll, but it is for match box cars. There is a flap that comes down before you roll it up. When the flap is open it is a road to drive the cars on. Tooo Cute.
Great post. Thanks for the ideas.
Why did you not leave a link!!!!!!!! Oh the suspense! I so need to make one for my boy and his little friend…
I LOVE the journal covers!! I can’t wait to do this. Thank you so much. I just don’t have time to surf the internet myself for these ideas. I love that you do it for all of us!!
I just have to finish the MANY crayon rolls I have started and then I can move onto these journals. I bought a bunch of composition notebooks for this purpose (I was just going to try to figure it out), but I love that I know exactly where to go for a step by step tutorial now! Thanks so much.
Glad you found it useful! A lot of these links have other tutorials too…
I second that…where’s the link for the little boy’s idea?? I’d love to see that!
What a great list Destri! So many cute ideas that I might really try to get my sewing machine out. I haven’t touched it since we moved…it’s time!
