Home made for Christmas


 Good Morning,I have joined up with the lovely Jenny of Elefantz to celebrate homemade gifts. I for one love to make Home made gifts for my family and friends. I love to see their faces when they open up my gift and they realize the thought and effort I have gone to  just for them.
 Its always a bit tricky as to what to make but once I get an idea I'm right to go. I always think about the colours I'm going to use and the purpose of the gift.
 I like to make useful gifts so I have made some very easy zipper pouches, these take less than a couple of hours to make.
 I had some christmas scraps so I whipped up this sweet pouch. Perfect for the holiday season.
 I made these 2 pouches from just 2 fat quarters, one for the outside and one for the lining. If you cut carefully you can easily get a big pouch and a smaller one  to go with it.
 I found these beautiful designs on pinterest. If you are ever stuck for an idea on what sort of gifts you would like to make, pop on over ans take a look, there is so much to see and get your inspired.

 I love these ear phones holder, so cute don't you think. The tutorial for making these can be found here.
I love these ipad covers to.

 Makes me want to start sewing right now.

I hope I have helped you come up with a few ideas for your gift list.

Happy sewing.

You reminded me that I have some wooden spools, Leanne, and I should do something with them - thank you! :-)
