Every year I like to do a bit of Christmas crafting and one thing that appears to have become a bit of a tradition is that I always write a little tutorial on here on how to make a Christmas Wreath. They’ve changed from the natural Christmas wreath I made while slightly intoxicated at the Church Christmas do (oops!) to the super quick Christmas wreath I made last year and now I’m sharing a quick tutorial for an embroidery hoop wreath I made yesterday. I think this is my favourite so far!

35+ Cool Gifts to Sew for Kids
I love to sew but I’m always a bit scared about giving handmade gifts. What if my friends or family don’t think they’re up to scratch? Thankfully I have two people in my life that have always loved the things that I’ve made for them and that’s my kids.

I hope it will inspire you to sew something as a present too!
