Handmade Christmas Gifts


Today I want to share some of my handmade Christmas gifts that I've made so far.  This is a picture of a set that I made for my Mom.  It's a hanging towel, table runner, and potholders.  (Obviously ;)
 

Here's the group of hanging towels I made.  I'm thinking probably teacher gifts and such.  They're fun, cute and pretty easy to sew up!  Here is the link to the pattern that I used: Hanging Towel Pattern

Some of the towels I used were a little fat.  I'd go with a skinnier variety next time.
 

These table runners were fun to make and turned out great.  I found a great tutorial on how to make them here: Table Runner Tutorial  I hope my Aunts enjoy them. 
 
 


I only made two sets of potholders, because they were kind of a pain in rear.  But they turned out decent.  ;)  And again, here's the tutorial I followed:  Potholders Tutorial


Now, the past couple of nights I have made these cute mandalas.  It's fun to learn new crochet patterns.  And I just thought these were darling.  Check out the website where the pattern is:  Mandala Pattern


Thanks for stopping by!
