LAST MINUTE GIFTS

There are so many wonderful tutorials on line right now. I took advantage of a couple of them for some last minute gift making.

Over at Imagine Gnats, she has a tutorial for a quilt as you go stocking, so I made one for Janie.

I cut it down a bit because it was a little big for my needs. I didn't think the smallest one in the clan needed the biggest stocking  : )




 You can better see the random pieces in this picture. Rather than sewing and turning it, I added a cuff and a binding.


At My Cotton Creations, she has a super quick pajama pants tutorial.

I made each of the grand girls a pair,



then I cut out an owl from the leftovers and fused it on to a plain white T




Janie's party pants   ( all ready for New Years eve )


Lastly, I FINALLY finished these socks for my Mom in law. She loves bed socks so I will enclose a couple of gift cards and get these in the mail.


Are you ready?
Merry Christmas from my house to yours.

    Thanks for such great tutorial links! I've been looking for a cute pants pattern and this one is perfect. And I'll need a stocking for our newest little one for next year!
