I Made A Gift

November 24th, 2011 at 02:51 pm

I made a gift today. No current out of pocket cost since I had all items on hand.

I made a fabric key chain! I plan to give this to my neighbor and good friend for Christmas. She also sews so I expect she will appreciate the gesture.



The tutorial I used is

I love that I came up with something from my stash! Do you have anything on hand that you could turn into a great gift for someone you know?

    I made DD an apple cozy out of some left over cotton yarn... her friends loved it so much, they´ve been asking for apple cozies for their birthdays... all made from leftover cotton yarn from other projects! Yay!...

    Yes, LOVE it and these are rather popular in the crafty communities. Good for hooking little computer chip drives, keyless car 'key's' and all manner of little electronics nowadays.

    Ok someone explain tho why you would want to keep an apple warm, yuk!

    Nice Job! That is cute. I dont have time this year to make gifts, but I have knitted, painted, etc. in prior years.

    PCJ- I dont think the idea of an apple cozy is to keep the apple warm, I think it is to keep the apple from bruising or the skin from getting dinged up and dirty. Smile

    I think apple cozy is probably for an Apple Ipod or Ipad. Just my guess!
