I have always wanted to have a Christmas where all the gifts given were handmade by me. Usually I decide that about a week before Christmas and then it's waaaay to late for that to happen. This year, however, maybe that could happen if I start working on those gifts now.
Jennifer at Ellison Lane Quilts is hosting a blog hop of 12 different bloggers who will be showcasing a lot of super handmade gifts and tips just in time for Christmas.
I saw this. I too, would love things to be homemade. That works for some and not for others. I got a new SIL and I crocheted her this beautiful scarf and hat for winter (that I would have LOVED to have kept, by the way!) and she was completely indifferent. Now my other SIL and her kids would have been all over it!
I totally understand - been there! Not everyone appreciates handmade, but I try and make at least a few presents each year for those that WOULD be pleased. Good luck!
