Here's what I've pulled off so far:
Clockwise from top left: journally binder cover for 9 yr old Man Boy (that's fake woodgrain fabric. Totally excellent); little notepad thingy for girl party I'm going to tonight; cooking apron for 7 1/2 yr old Man Boy (um--yes it says HAWAIIN BEER. He went nuts over this old, strange shirt when he found it in my pile. What's a mother to do but make her son's dreams come true? And no--he didn't even notice that it said beer.); stack of christmas garlands for the Relatives; Christmas apron for the Mother; And a tiny little doll quilt for the 20 Month Lady Baby (used this tutorial and a cloth diaper for the batting.)
Also, made this for a gift and am totally keeping it for myself:
The other side:
If you're looking for a quick-to-make gift for a sew-lover, I highly recommend it. And if you're really pressed for time, make 3000 of these like I have. Strangely soothing to glue, plus they're darling.
Good luck out there.
