Gifts for the Holiday Season
The Gift Giving Season is upon us and it is the time of great joy, but also high anxiety for some. We here at PatternReview have got your back. Scouring through HUNDREDS of potential gift patterns we have come up with some ideas for quick and easy makes you can give to your friends, family and love ones far and near. What do PatternReview members like to make as gifts? Well, let's have a look!
Gifts - Wallets and Pouches
One of the best scrap busting gifts is to make a pouch or wallet. We could all use a little catch all to keep our trinkets and coins in.
