NeedleReads: Quick Sew Gifts

Need a quick gift idea?

Here are some great books with easy, fast sewing projects:

Last-minute patchwork + quilted gifts / Hoverson, Joelle Bend the rules sewing : the essential guide to a whole new way to sew / Karol, Amy Simple sewing : patterns and how-to for 24 fresh and easy projects / Jansdotter, Lotta


In class tonight, we played with these ideas found online:

--felted wrist warmers

 --animal keychains

 --chapstick cozy keychains

-- boot shapers

 --button hairpins

 we also considered making:
fabric scrap keychains, sewn blank notebooks, t-shirt shopping bags, rice-filled heating pads

we had a great turn-out and lots of fun!  If I missed a project that someone needs a link to (or if you have a suggestion for next year's edition of this class), leave a comment on this post!
