My mom always had a colossal upright dresser full of miscellaneous items to use for gifts. Each drawer had interesting odds and ends she had collected over time. (I would add a fun statement listing some of the more interesting items you have found in her dresser). My thoughts revert to that wondrous dresser every time I need a gift at the last minute.
Over the years, I have tried stashing away items in my own version of mom’s dresser. My plastic bins from Wal-Mart are far from her beautiful antique dresser, but they have helped keep all the items in one place. For a while, I was buying things, stashing them in random places, and finding them when it was too late. I often found myself wishing I had found that one wonderful item just a few weeks earlier. I would think to myself, “Oh shoot, that would have been the most eccentric gift for my sister” or similar.
Every Christmas, no matter how great my intentions throughout the year, two things would happen: I would spend family time working on gifts at the last minute, causing enormous stress (to the entire family), and I would wish I had kept up with my intentions to harbor amazing gifts throughout the year.
The Great Handmade Gift Event
A handmade gift, in my opinion, is always best and meant someone spent time on my behalf. Handmade gifts are often (but not always) a less expensive option than store bought things.
Wouldn’t it be great if come December we had things all ready so we could focus on family, the season and other things? Wouldn’t it be nice if next time we remembered a birthday or needed a get well gift we could go to our stash and have something ready?
Let’s Do This!
Each Monday from July 15 – November 25th, we will start a new project.
I’ve created 20 new crochet projects geared towards covering a variety of events. Many of these would also be good for craft fairs.
What you will get
20 new snappy projects, one sent each Monday morning, which include a quick crochet project. Plus, to help us finish up the gift, I’ve added ideas for packaging and other uses for that week’s project.
What Will The Projects Be?
Here are the first 4 projects.
About the Patterns
I have put together items that have been great gifts for me, things that have sold well in craft fairs, and gathered suggestions from many friends. These 20 patterns will be a great resource whenever you need to whip something up because they cover so many categories.

Love your 20 new?? projects, need to sign up, where?? ty
I signed up. Can’t wait
Can you please say what kind of patterns it will be? will it be mostly kids stuff? clothing? house/kitchen items? thanks.
Hi! I am sorry I didn’t see this sooner. The projects are mostly things that could be used for a large variety of people and occasions. I wanted a group of patterns to cover all of the basics, such as beanies, scarves, headbands, simple slippers. Our first project is a small tote/container. We will do a few more containers, a couple of kitchen items, things that are good for men and women too. I hope this helps.
