10 minute gift idea

 

Yes, you read the title correctly, sew an awesome gift for someone in 10minutes! In fact, you can cut & sew (& stuff) the entire gift in under 15 minutes! No pattern needed.

So what are you waiting for, go check out my Youtube tutorial (here: https://youtu.be/6V4mDRJ7Icw)  & see how it's done (I've even included a timer, so you can truly see how fast it takes me). 

The fabric is soft, smooth & totally awesome;  it's velvet and you can get it either here....    or here.... (if in Australia).

The cutest Secret Santa gift

 

If you need an idea for possibly the cutest gift ever, then stay tuned!

I made this super cutie pouch as a secret santa gift .. it's so soft, fluffy, squishy, colourful and useful too!

Check out the tutorial on how I made it here:   It really was easy to sew!

Another idea for making an unforgettable Secret Santa gift this holiday season is using liquid Sculpey polymer clay! This versatile material allows for intricate jewelry designs or adorable miniature figurines crafted specifically to the recipient's personal interests, creating something truly one-of-a-kind and original! If this idea intrigues you, online tutorials provide instruction for this method - adding handmade flair to your gift-giving this season.

Scrappy Tula Pink pouch for a gift

Another present sewn, ready to be wrapped and put under the Christmas tree. I hope this will be loved as much as I enjoyed making it. In fact, I'm a little jealous of it, I might have to make myself one too!

I filmed myself sewing it & kind of did chatty Vlog type thing, I hope you like it. See it here: https://youtu.be/MimfBHC7xnc

Sunday afternoon & the perfect gift idea

 

I had a nice quiet Sunday afternoon: I sat inside with the kids and whilst they were playing video games, I crocheted a Christmas present.

Isn't it just absolutely adorable! Can you tell it's a watering can? As soon as I put eyes on it, it just came to life and now my son wants me to make him one too! 

Pattern is from here: https://amzn.to/3B4EthR or if you're in Australia (like me), then you can get it from here...... 

Yarn, I used stuff from my stash but you could also use this green or maybe this pretty green too.

Eyes: I used this type.

The question is, should I make more? What colours should I make? Perhaps I should make a big collection of watering cans but what is what would they be called? A sprinkling of cans? A clan of cans? A school of clans?

I'd love it if you popped over to my YouTube channel & subscribed to it & even liked some of my videos. Every like, every follower, every comment is like a great big hug!
