I have recently stumbled upon a GREAT website. Sew Mama Sew blogs each day in the month of November about a homemade Christmas gift. Now when I say “a” I mean they take one idea and give options. For example today is baby blanket day and 3 different tutorials are linked and there is also a pattern suggestion. Now may I just say brilliant! This is a fabulous resource for wives such as myself when pinching pennies is becoming a game and almost thrilling. Each day I become more and more excited to discover what idea is to be revealed!
