Is it bad that I want to make most of those thngs for myself..?
Just to let you know that the link to the Hexie Caddy is incorrect. It should be http://pennyshands.blogspot.com/2010/08/hexie-caddy-tutorial.html
Thanks Irene and Kristin for featuring my Hexie Caddy Pincushion

I’m having trouble not wanting to make several things for me! Like the crochet hook case. And I’d love a yarn bowl! Stop it, Anna!! I need to start thinking about others, I think.
Brilliant collection of projects. I need all of them
Handmade holidays just keeps getting better. Looking forward to seeing what’s next!

Love the camera strap, what a great way to spruce up your camera – especially a present for the photography lover in your life (the one that has a sense of style – lol).
I think I might have to make myself a Christmas present! I love all those ideas and my sewing room needs a facelift.
Great ideas and fabrics at sewmamasew. Logan home dec weight fabric by Vicki Payne is adorable!
I love these ideas…especially the Hexie Caddy. What wonderful giveaways too!
So many cute projects today. I love the crochet hook case and ruffled strap.
Some cute and very useful tutes today! Thanks for posting these.
I love the yarn bowl!
I just love Handmade for the Holidays. Today I love the yarn bowl and the kids project book. I love the crochet case too….. I want to do all these projects. Everyday, I say, this is so “Right on”. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for tomorrow….
Today I am going to give my sewing space a massive reorganization and cleaning and then the holiday sewing will begin!
The link to the Hexie Caddie is incorrect. It take me to a tutorial for making fairy wings!
I love the yarn bowl and the boxes to make. Thanks again for this great series of crafts.
What fun tutorials! Thanks for sharing them!
I had just decided to make my friend a crochet hook case and boom—there it is on here! My friend’s name is Rachel, just like the name on the case pictured…so it was definitely meant to be.
These craft ideas are great.I want to make them all.And how cute is that yarn bowl!Every one of those books would be loved by some little folks I know. Isn’t it fun to see your children want to craft too! ;o)
Thanks again for great ideas. I will make some for myself!
I love the wrist pincushions. Todays project? Maybe.
Hanging Storage Baskets look awesome!!! : )
Wow wee! I love the tutorials, but I have to confess I’ll be making some for me.
The yarn bowl is awesome!
OH– I would love some Magpie Patterns!! Fingers crossed
I love that camera strap! I may have to make one for myself too
Very nice collection, I think the fabric baskets and the hanging baskets will make great gifts.
That yarn bowl is a great idea!
Such great ideas! Thanks!!
Those fabric storage boxes are great! I know just where to put them!
Wow, so many of these ideas would work for more than just the crafter. I might try the hanging storage baskets in my kids’ room or in the mudroom to hold gloves and whatnot. The Sewing School book, also looks great. With four little girls all wanting to learn, I will have to look into this one further, lol.
Hooray, these are great gift ideas for my crafty mom. That hexie caddy is awesome!
I have been meaning to make a sewing machine cover for a long time. It might be time for a present for me!
So many good tutorials! I don’t know where to start!
Oh boy, I’ve been wanting to make hanging pockets for a looooong time…
Another day of great projects. Love all the storage ideas. I see some projects for myself. That yarn bowl is also adorable. A possible christmas present for my daughter.
i think i have to buy that yarn bowl for my mom!
by the way, the link is wrong for the hexie caddy!
I love the fabric hanging basket idea. I need this to store winter gear.
Lots of awesome ideas here!
Thanks so much for this! I love the hexie caddy, but the link seems to be wrong….
I like the hanging storage baskets.
You know we crafters LOVE our storage!! Nice hanging baskets! And I really like the Yarn Bowl…very unique!! Thanks again for the chance!
These are all great–totally gifts I want to make for myself!
I think I’ll make one of those hexi-caddies for myself! I could also use the hanging baskets/pockets…and maybe I could even adapt it to hold kids toys in the playroom! Thanks for another great roundup…I love this blog and all the chances to win.
I could really use some of those baskets – and those hanging baskets. Oh, and I’m sure I know someone else who could too. These are great gift project ideas. Oh, and that yarn bowl – I’ve never seen anything like it and I think it is genius!
The sewing caddy is such a great idea
That yarn bowl is gorgeous!!! I think my kids need to make pincushions for people this year…
That sewing caddy looks so handy – I’d never lose my scissors again! Thanks for the great tutes again!
The sewing machine cover is so beautiful, simple and sensible!
Those gift tags are such a lovely idea.
More awesome ideas today…
More great books! Thanks for the chance!
love the wrist pin cushion — thanks for the ideas!
Storage cubes! I know so many people (including myself) who need those in copious quantities. Note to self…
I am head over heals for that yarn bowl! I think I passed ceramics in high school only because the teacher took pity on me so I now have extra awe when seeing the work of others! I am going to make a slew of the baskets though, who can’t use extra storage space.that is pretty to boot!
These are some great ideas! Love the cube!
Thanks for sharing Obsessively Stitching’s Fabric Cube tutorial.
Oh, and you’ve probably fixed this already…but the hexie caddy link is wrong…
That crochet hook case would be an awesome gift idea for my crocheting-like-crazy neighbor! She’ll just love it!
Having a considerable collection of fabrics (I refuse to call it a “stash”) I cannot believe I didn’t think of making those cute fabric storage bins! I always get such good ideas here! And I’d LOVE to win a book!
I think I need to make one of those sewing machine covers for me!
I love the storage cube idea. And the Woodland Style book looks really cool!
I think my boys and I will make the pincushion for their Granny!
I Love today’s ideas!
Great sewing accessories – would love to make the caddy.
I need to go make several of those Hexie caddies. Thanks for this great list.
Again, a great set of ideas!
i would love to receive any of today’s gift ideas!
Love those baskets! The books to win look amazing, too!
I’ve made the sewing machine cover. It is super easy!
I’m getting llost in links, having so much fun browsing the blogs and etsy shops of those whose links are here for today’s projects. I *love* anything about organizing, so these are just perfect for me. And they look easy to do, thank you very much for selecting easy and inexpensive projects! Awesome!
Love the wrist pincushions…so much sturdier than my half inch elastic one that always seems to flip around – I know many folks who would like the upgrade!
i’ve been looking for good storage ideas
I love the storage cube!
I’d really like the sewing machine caddy – it’d be a great gift but as i’m the only one I know that crafts I guess I’ll need to “gift” myself it!
All gorgeous ideas! I’d love if someone made something like those for me
Love that hexie caddy and the sewing caddy with detachable pincushion, i’ve been wanting to make one of those for myself forever!
That crochet hook case is the cutest!
So many great ideas! I think I need more time before Christmas….
Lots of great ideas, now to get busy and sew.
These ideas every day are just fantastic! Today I am so happy to see the tutorial for the hanging baskets. We could use those everywhere in our house. The download for the gift tags is just my style, too. Thank you sew much!

So glad to see some things here I haven’t seen before. Thank you!
These are all amazing! I’ve been needing some storage boxes like those, but these are soooo much cuter than the store-bought kind. Thanks!
Does it count as a gift if I make it for myself?
Love it all! I want my friends to make me these things!!!
Merry Christmas to me. I love these projects
I love the totes! Can’t wait to make some… Thanks:)
The camera strap is cute, got to try that one!

Love the ruffled camera strap!
The woodland craft book look fantastic, would love to get my hands on that!
Love the hanging boxes and I know a lady who would love the crochet hook case!
All the projects are incredible. I think I will wind up making a few of the fabric storage cubes for a friend and myself. I love the yarn bowl too. Definitely a great invention for those of us who know the frustration of having to chase after runaway yarn balls or dealing with tangled ones.
Oh my goodness, where to start! I love everything in this post, especially the yarn bowl
Such great ideas. I don’t know where to start. Thanks for the inspiration.
My girls already love to sew, it would be so great to have a book of ideas, ready to present them, when they get their next itch to sew!

A whole lot of good ideas!

I’m going to put that Woodland Style book in my Amazon wish list right now!
I could definitely use a fabric storage cube… it would definitely look cuter than my plastic Walmart bags I use!!
I hope one of my friends makes me one of the super cute projects listed above!
The cubes are gonna be on my top list of things to make! They are so much cuter than anything from the stores, at least from what I’ve seen!

I have to try making some of the fabric storage cubes!
That yarn bowl would have saved me hours on many a knitting project!
I like the camera strap, and will have to look at those hanging storage baskets!
So many cute things! My to-make list is getting longer and longer. And I love the yarn bowl!
I think I will need to make some of the fabric storage cubes for myself as well as for one of my friends who I know will love them. The pin cushions are adorable, but my favorite item is the yarn bowl. It is just such a great thing for those of us who know what it is like to have to chase after runaway balls of yarn or the tangled messes they can become when not properly handled. Thanks for the awesome ideas and stuff
The Hexi Caddy is perfect! I’ve been looking for something accessible like that for my small sewing space
OMG love that knitting bowl from Dorothy Domingo soooo much, it would be perfect for my friend that loves to crochet!!!

I would love to get the Sewing School for my 7 year old or the magpie GC–they have some great stuff in that shop.
Love the tutorials. Thanks for the giveaways
I think the hanging storage pockets would be a great idea in my classroom for the students’ “mailboxes”.

I love those hanging storage cubes!
…. that sewing machine cover and sewing caddy, I need to go and make those…now!
All the books look awesome too, especially simpfly. I love working with small pieces of fabric 
These are awesome ideas. I love the ruffled camera strap.
That crochet hook case is beatiful!
Now on my list…all of the above! Too cute! Thanks again for the great ideas
Great gifts for crafters!!! Been considering making some cubes….hm?
What great ideas! I want to make all of them for my sewing room.
I love the sewing machine cover and the wrist strap pincushions. I see those on Project Runway all the time and have often thoought they were a good idea.
I’m definitely going to have to try the sewing caddy tutorial. Thanks for the idea and the chance to win!
I need a sewing machine cover, it looks great.
I love the hexie box and I am afraid to make it. Mary
Any of those books would be a treat!
And the projects are lovely– thank you! I enjoy this month on Sew Mama Sew very much.
I love the yarn bowl – I could definitely use something pretty and useful to hold my yarn!
I look forward to making the fabric storage cube and would love to have the Simplify book.

Great ideas!! And great books!!
I WANT that yarn bowl! It’s so simple but so gorgeous!
Once again, another list full of amazing ideas!
i should make a bunch of cubes to sort out my scraps by color – just think, a different color for each cube, super cute and rainbow-ish!
That yarn bowl is to die for! I have several knitters on my list who would love one!
Isn’t it amazing how many talented people are out there. Great stuff! Thanks
I sooooo wish for fabric baskets!
Sewing School looks really interesting. My seven year old would be able to do it, but it is my three year old who has the burning desire to sew.
And I have never seen a yarn bowl like that. Very, very cool.
Love these wonderful ideas! I want to make the hexi-caddy!
The school sewing book looks fun!
Thank you for all these wonderful ideas. The goodness just keeps on coming!
I’ve never seen a yarn bowl before, but it’s a fantastic idea! Wonderful!
I want every finished product on this page for myself, lol
What great ideas. I can’t wait to try some.
I need 50 of those storage cubes (: thanks for the ideas (:
I am going to use those cute gift tags. Thank you!

Same as Melissa here, I want to make most of that fot myself.
Love these projects and have people in mind already to make these for!
I just love everything this week!
The hanging storage baskets are something that I totally need to make for my daughter’s room, but somehow I don’t think she’d appreciate it as a Christmas gift – although if I stuffed the pockets with some nice little gifties I bet that would sweeten the deal.
The fabric storage cube and the hexie caddy caught my attention right off the bat! Instead of handmades for others – how about trying the patterns out first – for me?
Gotta try the hexie caddy…
I am still hoping to win!!
I need the organizer for myself!
I have never seen a yarn bowl. I am getting one for a knitting friend!
I liked the hanging baskets and folding storage tote.
I think the crochet hook case is really great! I may have to modify it for my mother’s knitting needles. She would love it =)
Love, love, love the yarn bowl. If I were a knitter, I’d buy one for myself.
I love the fabric storage cube! I want to try that for organizing some of my sons things.
I love the fabric totes! I am wondering if they will fit nicely in my Ikea Expedit shelf??
Fantastic organization ideas!

I like the hexie caddie. Right now my sewing notions are in one box, but I have two boxes that look alike so I’m always picking the wrong box first!
I love the storage basket ideas!
Thank you SO much for featuring my pin cushion! I hope it helps some people make some super cute gifts!!! I love the other projects, too!!!

I love this blog series you all are working on – keep up the good work. It’s my inspiration to keep on crafting : )

I just spent toooo much on some fabric cubes for my craft room, I never even thought about making them! Shame on me!
I could definitely use one of those hexy caddys! Oh wait… I’m supposed to be thinking of others!!
I love a book that talks about simplifying.
such nice give-aways this year! I’m crossing my fingers.
There’s nothing wrong with making some stuff for myself here, right? One for you, one for me. One for you, two for me….
I tried the gift tags- thank you they’re perfect!! <3
cover, caddy and cube–the c list
Did you have to add the cake. A fat crafter is what I’ll be.
I think I will try to make those bins. They are so cute!
The crochet hook case is fab! Though I think I might be most interested in the yarn bowl.
Just checked out Magpie patterns. What a great collection. Would love to win that gift certificate!
I am loving all of the giveaways-I’ve been introduced to so many cool books!
That Yarn Bowl from Dorothy Domingo is so pretty going to have to put that on my wish list.
I hope someone makes this stuff for me!

I need those cube boxes, and that yarn bowl is really beautiful!

I have been looking for a nice yarn bowl for awhile now, and I have just found it! Thank you!
It’s hard to choose between these projects but I think I’ll start with the Sewing Caddy & Detachable Pincushion; this will be a gift for me!
I’m going to have to make myself some of those storage cubes!
yarn bowl = awesome! love the sewing machine cover as well – in a house with two dogs, this’ll be very useful!
the yard bowl is precious…
No surprise this is my favorite day yet – several of these are going on my project list
