Handmade Holidays - grab the needles to your hands!!!

It's not much about embroidery but every needle&thread addict will love all that can be found on Sew, Mama, Sew blog. Each day there comes a post plenty with various ideas regarding handmade things. So, if you've had worries about gifts to your dearest ones you can have a deep breath now. Some scraps, a few needles and threads, a bit of sewing skills, but first of all - positive attitude and willingness to spare your time will do wonders. At least this is how it looks like...
After reading first posts about Handmade Holidays I took out the sewing machine with old fabric scraps and started to make a fabric book for my son. And yes, this means I put aside my Hardanger embroidery. But I just cannot help myself. And the more I read these posts my to-do list grows and grows.



Oh, the last but not the least - if you comment the Handmade Holidays posts you have a chance to win great books - every day brings another one. In fact I shouldn't write this as it makes my chances lesser ;).
