 These would make a great gift, or leave off the pockets and use these as the gift bag.

A tissue holder.
Something a child or beginner can make.
See the tips on how to fold the tissue too.

A neck roll that can be warmed in the microwave.

These can be made in the hoop with an embroidery machine, 
or with the given measurements 
to cut and make with a regular machine.

 Know someone that has an 18 inch doll?
Have some scrap fabric?

This has quickly become a big hit over the past couple of years.
Everyone can use one of these, and
I know you have an old mug.
If not, go get one at a used store for fifty cents.

 Another popular hit has been these flat bowl holders 
that fit easy in a drawer with hot pads.
For that matter, use them as hot pads, 
because they lay flat!

Another item I make a lot for myself as well as others.
As you can see, they can hold more than just coupons.
Another project for a beginner.

Hope you enJOY making something this year for someone.

  1. Many great ideas here, Joy! I have always wanted to have a stash of the bowl holders in my home. Since the kids left, we often eat in the living room and these would be perfect...shhhh, don't tell the kids! I also need a few tissue pocket holders. Thanks!
