I signed up in February to be part of the Covert Robin mystery gift exchange. We all received the information for whom we will be sending a HOMEMADE gift valued at $20 to $30.
This is my first ever swap. My person has a blog, she doesn't sew or do crafts, and she has 2 little ones. I'm reading every post she has written so that I can get some hints on what she may like. She won't be reading this as I'm not the person she is sending a homemade gift to. I've been scouring my books for ideas and her pinterest site to come up with ideas.
Has anyone been involved in a swap and had this same situation on not knowing what in the world to make them?
Please advise!
Thanks!
Cindy
what about.... a zipper pouch? or a quilted throw pillow cover? and yes, i am in the same situation at this very moment ;) need to figure out what to send my partner!
ReplyDeleteA messenger bag or purse? It's hard to think of something in that price range for a non sewer!
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy,
ReplyDeleteYour work is beautiful. I've nominated your blog for a Liebster blog award, hopefully you accept. http://jeanette-stampingobsession.blogspot.com/2012/03/liebster-blog-award.html
I think some sort of bad or zippy pouch is a great idea. Or you could get brave and make a framed clutch.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's a bit of a tough one. But since she is in the swap she obviously appreciates hand made things, so I'm sure whatever you send will be loved. I can always use zippy pouches, or maybe some of those drawstring bags from Jeni's tutorial?
ReplyDeleteor if you go the way of something for the kids...crayon roll-ups or that cute toddler backpack tutorial Randi featured the other day would be great choices
