Christmas Gifts blog showcase

by Chloe on November 27th, 2007

There are a lot of busy bloggers this month!  I’ve put together a link round up of some of the best Christmas Gift posts from November :-)

• Mary Emma from Quilting & Patchwork continually discovers unique ideas for Christmas gifts and gift wrappings as she explores other blogs.  Take a look at Jen’s idea for making gift balls with fabric scraps!

• Noreen from Hankering for Yarn has been crafting up a storm and has a bunch of great ideas for Christmas presents!

• Cyndi from Layers Upon Layers has made a lovely art quilt and she says “Now is a good time to start if you’re going to make handmade gifts that take a bit of time! Gather together your fabric and paper scraps, and put together a unique art quilt for a special someone.”

• Maitri from Dragonfly Cottage has been making amazing hand-dyed scarves.

• Virginia has been creating beautiful and useful holiday gifts and benefit the American Cancer Society (ACS) at the same time.

The online Fiberart For A Cause Shop is open with artful designs focusing on hope, serenity and beauty. Apparel, totes, mugs, mousepads, and notecards are available. All profits ($5 per item) go to the ACS. Here is a blog post with more details:

Happy crafting!
