Sew a Mug Rug

Stitch the perfect stocking stuffer, a gift for a friend, or an accent for your home using fabric scraps! My easy-to-sew mug rug pattern is ideal to stitch using a peppermint theme. In no time, create a set of festive drink coasters. See the sewing tutorial here.

If you don’t have a favorite go-to recipe for homemade hot cocoa, my friends at PBS have one for you to try! The secret is in the crushed peppermints. Candy Cane Hot Cocoa Recipe

Red Jacket: Holiday Fashion

Cooler weather is upon us! My newest pattern with The McCall Pattern Company will keep you fashionable and comfy. Pattern M7512 is a tapered jacket with two unique collar options and sleeve lengths—ideal to wear during three seasons. The fabric I chose to use in both versions is ponte knit, a medium weight fabric that stitches like a woven, but drapes like a knit. Look for the pattern at your favorite retailer or at Nancy’s Notions. Read more about the seasonal red jacket and other styles included in this pattern here.

Seasonal Pillow Wrap

The project that I would like to share with you is a pillow wrap. You can easily change your home décor with a little fabric and a great embroidery design. Embroider a seasonal motif on the fabric. Then, follow these simple directions to create a wrap, or two! I made one for the autumn season and a second for Christmas time. One design fits both categories, the thread color changes transformed a fall tree to a Christmas tree! Learn to make the pillow wrap here.

Even More Holiday Round-Up Fun

Time to enjoy family, traditions, and celebrations. In keeping with my holiday traditions, I’ll be making handmade items. I hope you will, too. Fast Projects for the Holidays sewing round up is a collection of festive and quick sewing tutorials. Make items for yourself or gift them to someone special. Gather fabrics from your stash, grab a new collection of fat quarters, or start with ready-made/recycled items. There’s a project here for everyone. See the 2016 Holiday Sewing Round Up here.

    The template I made doesn’t have any code in it about the navbar. I’d like to bring it back. What code do I put in to show the Navbar in blogger?.
