December Giveaway Day

1. For Christmas I’ve made my sister a beach bag, my two nephews dragon/dinosaur tails and my son (should be born next month!!!) a cute monster doll. <3

2. So far, I’ve made a few zippered pouches in various sizes (along with gift cards as a gift), a tote bag for little books for my niece, and bow ties for all my guys (3 boys and husband). I still want to make some more zippered make-up bags or smaller credit card holder size as well as jedi bathrobes for the boys, a grocery bag holder for my mom, sand bags for my father-in-law (like to rest his gun on? – not even sure what this looks like, someone said he needed new ones), a travel neck pillow for a niece, and anything else I can think of before Christmas – oh yeah, some little sleeping bags for my daughter’s doll house dolls to go camping. My husband has been making things with the kids for them to give to others in the family – a climbing wooden monkey, a ping-pong ball maze, some trays for playing restaurant, and I’m not sure what else.

3. I have made several stockings and ornaments, and will be making more ornaments (remembrance ornaments for those who have lost loved ones this year) and an advent calendar (ok, that one is for my family for next year, but it counts, right?). I think I’d like to try to make a dress for my little girl from the supplies you’re giving away. That purple is my absolute favorite color on her (she’s only two, so I don’t need a ton of fabric for that – yay!)

4. Last year I made zipper pouches, mug rugs, and a firewood tote for my brother. This year I have been knitting cowls, scarves, and mitts for small gifts (because I can knit while I wait for my kids at karate, etc…), and my 12-yr-old daughter and I are making a quilt for my 6-yr-old daughter. Merry Christmas!

5. So far I’ve knitted a lot of stuff: a sweater for my 1 yr. old nephew, a shawl for grandma, a cap for my boyfriend, and fingerless mittens for a few others. Knitting takes longer than sewing for me, so once the knitting stuff is done, on to the sewn items!

6. I’ve made a runner, and a quilt for Christmas so far…hopefully two more runners before all is said and done. It’s been busy.

   Thanks for a chance to win. =)

7. A lot of little drawstring bags with toys in them, a couple pot holders, 2 table runners and a quilt. This was definitely my best “homemade” Christmas so far.

8. I am making passport covers/luggage tags for my brothers, a quilt for my mom and an e-reader cover/jewelry roll for my sister. I am also making scarfs for all of them. Can’t wait to give my gifts!

9. This year, I made taggie blankets, drawstring backpacks, bracelets, and some pant/top outfits for gifts.

10. I’ve made aprons for friends, raglan shirts for my nieces and nephew, a quilt for my niece. I have a few things to finish up – taggie blankets, car cozy etc.

11. So far I’ve made a mug rug and some coasters for my grandparents and I’m also embroidering kitchen towels for my mom by request!
