If you have a little time to spare, you might want to make a Christmas gift or two. I found a few great DIY gifts on Etsy that you might want to check out!
This retro mama doll pattern {pdf or kit} is adorable! I think you’ll have to make one for yourself and one to give away, don’t you?
Create a treasured gift with this cross stitch pattern {pdf or kit} from SewingSeed. I love the little deer…too cute!
Ornaments are always fun to make! Pattern Play has an easy sewing pattern to get you started. Once you start…watch out!
Pretty shoes! You’ll love this E-book on how to make these fabric flowers and attach them to your shoes. {Jewel Box Ballerina}
It’s a great way to have new shoes without going shopping!
Take some time out of your busy holiday schedule to create a bit for you and the lucky people on your list! Everyone love handmade gifts!
What kind of Christmas gift are you making this year? I’m working on a rag quilt right now.

Will you show the quilt?I’ve been dying to try one.
I agree with Barbra, would love to see your quilt!
Things I am/have worked on for giftmas:
*hair bows, I made many, was going to list them in my shop, but then decided that I would gift them out. My 2yr olds class is having a gift swapping next week, each child is to bring ONE gift for a child of the same sex. Well there is 11 girls, so one girl would be with out. I will gift two holiday hair bow clips.
Also, the center has boxes set outside of each classroom door for donations to “The Children’s Home Society” We dropped a Zhu-Zhu pet (purchased 4 pets at CVS for a total out of pocket of $10.53-score me!). Although I do not have business cards, I plan to attach a couple of holiday bow clips to a pc of card stock & write/print something like ‘special bow for a special girl, handmade by Casey Marie of Tummy Earth Fashions’ Adding my http://www.etsy.com/shop/TummyEarthFashions email in hopes to have visits, 🙂
Also working on a couple things for the adults/teachers…
*display board (wood w clothes pins attached to the front {covered in fabric/lace/buttons/etc} for displaying artwork/photos/notes/etc),
*gift-card holders (mint tin box adorned with fabric/buttons/lace/etc),
*Cinnamon stick candle holder (cinnamon sticks glued to the outside of a candle holder w a ribbon tied around it),
*adorned magnets (fabric/buttons/lace/etc, just something to make it more than a blah blah, lol)
