For christmas? besides the massive amount of mittens, my favorite project is a star nosed mole for my wildlife professor, who has been a mentor for me for a while, and I found an amazing pattern online. :)

I'm planning on making some apron's, journal covers and zippered pouches (If I can get over the fear of doing a zipper. I've still never done one before) for Christmas gifts.
I'm making a four seasons table topper for some gifts, and some wristlets - they'd be great paired with one of your wallets!

I LOVE Amy Butler Fabrics! My good friend Dahlia steered me in your direction on her blog and she is SO right. I LOVE this wallet. Perfect.
I'll be sure to add myself as a follower. As for projects this Christmas... I haven't even thought about it yet. But seeing as I have a new baby girl after 3 boys I'll probably be making some bows and some beaded bracelets. And probably some sort of stocking.
Here via Pink Chalk Studio, but will stick around cuz your blog looks cute! :)
I'm working on an advent swap and a mini-quilt swap for Christmas, but otherwise don't plan to do anything "Christmas-y" in the way of quilting. I may however, make some handmade ornaments again.

You know, you are really making me think. I haven't given it any thought yet. Last year my children each received a handmade gift. This year....? Maybe I'll make something for my husband this time. A sweatshirt?
For Christmas I am making everyone something in an eco-friendly theme (reusable bags, no-paper towels, etc.). In order to force myself to get the stuff made, I blog about it regularly.

Cute! I am making cards for Christmas this year, but I'm not sure what else. I guess it's time to get thinking! Thanks for a chance to win.
I'm hoping to embroider some Christmas stockings for our mantel.
Thanks for the opportunity!

Maybe a quilt.
Ah, Christmas - I admit I haven't thought that far yet but now that you've brought it to mind, I'm thinking about some crayon rolls and some totes. I'm kinda scared of zippers still..hehe.
I'm giving myself a break: no crafts for Christmas! I spent six months knitting a laceweight shawl for my mom and I'm itching to tackle some other projects.
Although some people may be getting cloth grocery bags as gifts if my next project goes well...
I just found your blog! This year I am making quilts and hopefully aprons for Christmas.
For Christmas, I am planning to refashion some wool sweaters into beanies for my family. Such a satisfying, ecofriendly, and quick project. I'm happy to see you share my love for Amy Butler...her prints are fabulous! Thanks, Amber

Pink Chalk Studio sent me here. Your wallet is darling. I'm making bags for women and pjs for the kiddies for Christmas.
Love the wallet. I'm making oven mitts from some cute japanese kitchen fabric to go with dish towels that were on sale at Crate and Barrel.
i am making some scarves and of course a quilt for my cousin's newest addition!
these will be a great addition to my daughter and daughter-in-laws' christmas stockings....:) thanks
i just made a copy of the "gather up pillow" from pink chalk studio.com to begin some Christmas sewing! you girls are so inspiring!!!
Love it! I'm planning on painting some new christmas ornament medallions for our tree. :)
I only wish I could make the things that you make! Maybe someday I will take the time to teach myself how to use my sewing machine so I can get started. Thanks for the inspiration...I love the wallets! raina
I think I'll make scarves again!!
Thanks for the chance!
That's a very cute wallet. I can't wait to try it. I'm a follower. I don't plan on making anything for Christmas. I always plan and never have time. I might try for tote bag for my granddaughter.
I have just found your wallet tutorial and am anxious to try this out. I have enjoyed looking over your blog. You are very creative. Keep up the great work!
I plan on making several Buttercup bags(Madebyrae) for my sister/nieces!
Thanks so much for this tutorial and giveaway opportunity! There may be a few zipper wallets in stockings this year...
I'm almost done with one sweater and have another queued up (for my own noodleheads). Also planning on knitting leg warmers, sewing up a few tote bags, and baking brioche hamburger buns for local friends and family.
My holiday projects are [Christmas] dresses for my two little girls. Gotta pattern from SugarCity and am crossing my fingers I can do it!! :)

For Christmas, I think I'm going to make a bunch of wool dryer balls. I have a bunch of friends going "green" so I think they'll be popular. I'm also making the yearly king sized quilt for my brother.
Anna,
Your blog and your projects are great! And you have such adorable little models! I'm a follower
Hmmm, for the very non crafty friend...I am still trying to learn the basic stitch for crochet!!! I made a Barbie blanket...does that count?
