Holidays: Need a One-Day Wonder?

I always seem to approach handmade gifts for the holidays with the best intentions.  Oftentimes, though, the only way I'll give an entire quilt to someone for an occasion is by coincidence, since quilts often have their own timelines.

However, many things I've made take less than a day, and some even less than an hour. That's the kind of last-minute holiday sewing I can get behind.

One of these whiskers blocks (free pattern!) would be the cutest wall hanging!


Maybe your favorite stitcher needs a fancy new ironing board cover.


With just one block and some extra background fabric, you're on your way to a stunning little pillow.



Keeping it simple and choosing bold fabrics makes even the simplest pillow designs shine.


Zipper pouches? Yes, please!


The quickest yet: keep those eyeglasses safe (and looking bright!)
