    Default Ideas for quick sew gift for 12 people?

    Why do I think of these things at the last minute? lol Christmas Cheer, I guess!

    For extended family members, something useful but fun. I was thinking along the lines of the same thing for each person, 30 years to 60 - just a little thing to give something instead of nothing.

    My thought was maybe a small sewn stocking or mitten filled with evergreen, berries, cinnammon sticks, like a tree ornament, or with their name and small candies, but I feel like these are not unique.

    I welcome ideas and suggestions or if you could share what you have done when you get these crazy ideas a few days before the event.

    You could buy a wisk and fill it with Hershey's Kisses, and put a pretty label saying I Wisk you a Merry Christmas.
    You could add a recipe, pot holder, etc .

    That's a fabulous idea! And much less stressful. Thank you!

    It’s easy and quick to make personal tissue holders. Lots of tutorials for them. I buy the tissues in a 12 pack and keep a few gifts ready to hand out. This is a great scrap buster.

    On the idea of a whisk....you can get mini whisks. I'd fill them with red & green M&M's and then wrap in plastic wrap and tie with a bow. The saying on a tag would still work.

    I made a bunch of bowl cozies and put candy in them. Since I have the Accuquilt bowl cozy die so it's a very quick and easy project.

    The possibilities are endless! I could also use a small wooden spoon wrapped in a pot holder with a recipe, a small canning jar filled with teas for the tea drinkers...

    A tube of good hand lotion is always appreciated. I like Utterly Smooth. It soaks in and no lotionly residue. That along with a tissue holder would be a very appreciated gift.
