Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching and as with any holiday, I always find myself scrambling to make those last minute gifts. So I figured in case there is anyone out there like me, then maybe we could all benefit from a resource of quick gift ideas.
Personalized Gifts
Everyone loves a gift with their name on it, a monogram, or a special quote or inside joke.
Granted, the longer the word or saying, the more time it’ll take to complete, but there are so many quick things you can make with some letters…
These examples include pouches, banners, pincushions, wall hangings, mini quilts, clear zip pouch, basket, mug rug, and pillow.
Patterns used are: My First Alphabet, My ABCs, and Love Rocks
These patterns are ON SALE through Feb 14th!

Hearts = Hearts
Is there anything that says “love” better than a heart?! Perhaps. But just for a moment we’ll say there isn’t.
The patterns shown are Heart Attack and Home Lovin.
Examples include a few mug rugs, wall hangings, and pillows. aaaaaannd a lot of blocks that you could make into so many different things: pouch, notebook cover, bag, baby quilt, bunting/garland, a banner, basket…the possibilities are only limited by your imagination.

Tutorials Anyone?!
If you’d like to turn your quilt block into a pillow, I have a simple Pillow Tutorial HERE that you can use.
And this YouTube video by Sharon Schamber shows my favorite method for adding a binding.
