As we inch our way closer to Christmas, I wanted to write a few more posts dedicated to gift ideas. I really enjoy writing these posts, so it is an easy way for me to create content during Blogmas.

For this post, I wanted to dedicate it to sewers. I am a sewer myself so I understand how hard it can be to find the right sewing oriented gift.

While working on this post, I realized I had so many ideas for gifts that I decided to split the ideas into two different posts. Look for part 2 coming soon!

And with that out of the way, here are the gift ideas for sewers!

DIY Crafts I Want to Make for Next Year’s Christmas

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

As I write this, I don’t think I have as much free time to work on my sewing, crafting, and general DIY list. I used crafting and sewing as a way to relieve stress. Yet, right now I’m not able to work on everything I planned on! Since I don’t have the time to work on anything, I decided to buy the supplies for everything I wanted to make and make them over the course of the next year for Christmas.

Even though I like to write about what I make on a different blog, I am currently taking a break from it. When I return from my break in January, Christmas will be over. This makes writing a post about all my planned crafting and DIY projects I want to make for Christmas very odd! Instead, I decided to write the post here on this blog as part of Blogmas 2022!

Since my vehicle broke down and the vehicle I’m borrowing broke down, I began to realize there are many things I need to do around my house but never did. I wanted to finish them, but I was either too busy or too sick to finish them. Now that I couldn’t go anywhere or do anything, I decided to work on as many of them as I could.

These things range from cleaning rooms out, sewing clothes I wanted to make but never did, or repairing things around my house. Even though I feel overwhelmed by the amount of things to do, I know working on small tasks will help me feel better about the rest of the things around the house.

One of the small tasks is washing. Usually the washing is focused on curtains, which I haven’t cleaned in years, but I recently found something I need to wash that wasn’t curtains. I found a quilt I made for my relative that needs to be washed. Continue reading “Thankfulness Over A New Washing Machine and How it Saved My Quilt” →
