On that list {in a very general manner} were Christmas gifts for close family / friends. Did I think that would happen? NOPE! But...... I was actually able to find a little bit of time at the end of the year - and this is some of what I came up with!
A personalized zippered pouch and matching mini wallet (made using this Modest Maven tutorial) for my brother's girlfriend {the fabric is one she
picked out herself, and with my help sewed up a cover for her kindle.... so I knew it was one she liked!}
Three sets of hanging kitchen towels (also sold in my Etsy shop - though I really need to add in some non-holiday ones!) - for my parents, my sister & brother-in-law, and my brother
A set of two coffee sleeves for my parents (also available in my Etsy shop!)
And... of course.... the 7 pairs of PJ pants for my boys!
I also sewed our family custom stockings this year - finally - after having stashed fabric for a couple years now (that I didn't end up using!) - and after realizing we must have just grabbed a "sample" stocking for Little Man #2 last Christmas (yup... mom of the year!). I used the Stockings With Style pattern from one of my FAVORITE pattern writers, Tie Dye Diva Designs. Can't wait to share more pictures of those very soon!
