    Gift ideas (quick eand easy)?
    on: February 22, 2010, 03:46:19 PM
    I am teaching myself to sew and have so far made pajama pants, a ruffled little girl's skirt, a twirly skirt, a headband, reusable ziploc bags and a pair of baby pants.

    Anyway, a good friend is having her birthday next week.  She loves homemade things and pretty much all things girly and feminine.  I would love to be able to make something for her.  I am looking for a quick and easy but also special gift to make her.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks SO much!!
