Are you one of those organized  people that starts sewing for Christmas in July?  I’ve heard that some people start in January!  If you’re ready to start now, here are a few ideas.

To get yourself off to a quick start try these quick finish projects.  Three for the price of one!  Simply….Ho! Ho! Ho! includes instructions for a table topper, a table runner, and a gift bag. 

If you like us on Facebook, or follow us on Pinterest, you may have noticed these Vintage Ornaments show up on our pages. They are all pre-printed and pre-colored.  All you do is embroider and embellish.  Great take along projects and great gifts, too.

 Is your tree skirt in need of replacement?   We have several Christmas tree skirt patterns with all different looks, from traditional to modern.  This Winterberry Star has a bit of an art deco look to it.  It’s a beautiful piece that can also be made as a wall hanging.  Why not make both?  After all, if you are starting now, you have time!

Do you have any new family members that need a Christmas stocking? Or maybe the stockings you have are getting a little threadbare.  The Stockings Were Hung pattern shows some whimsy along with the Folk Art look.  Personalize these your favorite way.

 The advantage to starting this early is that you have plenty of time for a larger project.   Christmas Windows finishes at 51″ x 63″ and will certainly set the holiday mood hanging on your living room wall.  Twelve applique wreaths that are as different as snowflakes will  hold any viewers interest; a beautiful piece of art for you to admire as you sip your eggnog and catch your breath after a long day of holiday activities. 

That’s enough window shopping for now.  End the procrastination before it starts and get sewing!
