During the Holidays, I find myself looking for little sewing projects for gift giving. Just a little something extra to add to a gift, maybe some stocking stuffers – but most importantly projects that whip up quickly and with fabric I have on hand. So I rounded up some sewing tutorials and patterns that I think will be great for just that.
I organized them in Women and Big Girls, Men and Big Boys, Little Boys, Little Girls, and Babies to make it easy for you to find an idea. Some of the projects are universal too. It’s a long one, so catch it after the jump!

Thank you so much for including my Superhero Hand Warmers and The Pokemon Card Pouch on your list! I’m so honored to be among such fabulous gift ideas!
thank you so much for all of the link luv hun!
What a great list! Thanks. I just discovered those kimono shoes the other day (the pattern is on sale!) and wanted to buy them. I was put off by the pdf thing-printing out all those pages and not being sure if the pattern is printing correctly. My daughter fell in love with them too, so she is going to go for it. They are adorable.
I bought the pattern too, just haven’t found the time to make them, let me know how they go!
