🎄 FREE Gifts Hiding in Your Sewing Room! 🎁 | VLOGMAS Day 18

[@shayarnold3149]

What great ideas! Thank you so much for sharing and showing! One of the things that I'm doing this year for stocking stuffers is a little 10 like you have with the scissors, thread, needle for my family to have in the car. That way whenever they are at an event and the button falls off or their hem gets loose or whatever, they've got it in the car. I have used homemade cards for many years from other people. It makes me smile twice because I remember the person who made the cards and I remember to say thank you for what I have gotten. Love love love the idea! What I have done with fabric cards that I have made in the past is using black thread to make a frame around the fabric or the applique. It goes through all the layers so trash is your sewing needle but super cute ideas! One other tip I'd like to share that I do is that I sign the back of all my quilts. I don't put a label like everybody else. I write my first name and the year it was made. Sometimes I hide it in the design. My father painted professionally. He signed all of his artwork and I don't know why I can't do the same. I just use a pigma micron pen and it's permanent! Then when one of my friends loses a loved one, I gift them with a quilt and tell them I'm wrapping them in a great big warm hug. Thank you Amy for always being an inspiration! 😀

I just love having these vlogs every day. Really enjoyed today's. I know they are a lot of work, but am going to be sad when vlogmas is over and not see you every day.

[@amydement.]

I'm so glad you're enjoying Vlogmas! 😊. Thank you for your kind words.

[@sonyamah5444]

I am going to be sad too!I have learned so much… just by watching Amy play/work away

[@amydement.]

[@debracarlo7575]

What great gift ideas! Thank you Amy! Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@amydement.]

Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you too! 😊

[@marinaabad4995]

The Dollar Tree has great tins that size for $1.25. Also, lots of crafty, sewing things to put into a kit.

[@amydement.]

That’s a great tip, thank you! 😊

[@BethNeutze]

Love your ideas, especially the note cards. You're right about having stuff in our stash that we could make someone's day. I've made mini sewing kits because you rarely see them anymore. I keep one in my toiletry bag.

[@amydement.]

That is a wonderful idea, especially for travel! 😊

[@cindysakala9641]

The cards are a great idea, and very timely, since I have planned to make a New Year resolution to send one card per day to cheer up someone’s day.

[@amydement.]

I love that idea! It's a wonderful way to spread some joy. 😊

[@elainelear4982]

Love this idea.

[@barbmckinlay5108]

Your vlogmas is different from all the rest in a very good way. I’m getting so many ideas. ❤

[@amydement.]

Thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying it! 😊

[@SharonRStudio]

Love the card idea. And the fact that the fabric can be reused. And the tins! Brilliant. Thanks

[@amydement.]

I am so glad you liked the ideas! 😊

[@maureenlangerfeld8489]

I love u being soooo real!❤

[@amydement.]

Thank you!!😊

[@lizwarnke4689]

What a great, quick idea for a card. I have some fabric I couldn't figure out what to do with it. All these ideas are great and I have everything I need, except the cellophane envelopes.

[@amydement.]

Awesome! ♥️♥️😊

[@LauraSup]

Thank you for the great gift giving ideas! I’m not sure I will get to them for this year but I’m making a list for the future!❤

[@amydement.]

I’m so glad you enjoyed them! There’s always a reason to make a gift. 😊

[@sewbeitquilts]

I am so loving those snarky phrases!

[@amydement.]

They’re really kind of fun and much more my speed than ‘live love laugh’😜

[@beckyscheller9358]

Great ideas. Just wish I had seen them earlier, as just had gift exchange at quild party😂 will do for next year❤

[@amydement.]

I'm glad you liked the ideas! You can always find a reason to give a gift! 💝

[@MichellesCraftsandMore]

Oh my gosh! I adore these cards. I have plenty of card bases I need to use up, so thank ytou for this fantastic idea! I just need to get liquid starch and glue sticks now.

[@amydement.]

You are so welcome! I hope you have a blast - they really are fun to make.

[@barbaradrentlaw597]

What great ideas. Thank you. Merry Christmas.

[@amydement.]

You’re so welcome! Merry Christmas to you too! 😊

[@nancyguerrero6662]

OMG! I used to make those in the 70's. I used stamps for the inside.

[@amydement.]

♥️♥️♥️

[@sonyamah5444]

Such a great bunch of ideas…. For anytime of the year… thank you!!

[@amydement.]

I'm so glad you like them! Thank you!!!

[@edielaramore5368]

Wonderful ideas!!!!! Thank you! I will definitely use them!

[@amydement.]

I’m so glad you can use them! 😊

[@alexandra-zaza-burns]

Great video, I love both of these ideas. The cards are great because you can really fancy them up if you want. Fussy cut fabrics, orphan blocks, little EPP flowers etc and if you have a little gift box to put them in they’ll look really fancy. I’ve made little EPP beginner kits for friends before with the basics and I cut some papers with my Cricut. They went down really well. I used zipper pouches rather than tins. BTW we couldn’t hear the dogs at all.

[@amydement.]

Thank you!!!😊

[@MichelleFrazier540]

Amy, I love this idea!!! I also wanted to say I look forward to your vlog every day, it’s so much fun!!!

[@amydement.]

thank you!

[@amydement.]

You are very welcome! 🥰

[@fransak2723]

Hello Beautiful! I’m guessing you starch and then cut. Have you ever cut the edges with a pinking blade? I use a product called Terial Magic. It is a starch like product that makes the fabric pretty stiff, just like the ones you did. It’s a little pricey but I think it takes a lot less product to get the results. I’ve seen the fabric stitched onto the cards too. I like the different angles on the camera you’ve been using lately. Love the snarky quotes. I’m making some simple fabric bookmarks and simple needle books for some young sewists I know.

[@amydement.]

Thanks so much. Yes starch then cut. Trial magic would work well and punking sounds fun!

[@aktarango]

Thanks for the awesome ideas!
