You Can Make This: A $100 Handmade Holiday Giveaway

Giveaway now closed, thank you to everyone who entered and congratulations to mframe, comment #31 and who said, "GFC blog follower"

Today I've got the BIG giveaway from You Can Make This (YCMT) I mentioned previously. It's jam packed full of wonderful epatterns to create all sorts of fabulous handmade gifts! In fact, there are FOURTEEN epatterns included and it's worth $100! I'll tell exactly what's in it at the end of the post.

I was browsing around their site last weekend and found all sorts of great things you can make for the holidays at YCMT! Here are some of my favorites:

For your home, Just a Little Something...For a Merry Christmas Design #3 shows you how to add this cute little ornament to pillows, tablerunner, quilts, or anything else you want to speed some holiday cheer on! For all the little kiddos in your life, how about these Reindeer and Snowman Pillows? I mean who wouldn't love one of these? You came make them with fleece and they'll double as a new cuddly friend.For your sweet little man, you can make a Little Cap - Sizes 12mths-5T. Use wool or flannel to keep his little head warm in the winter and then change things up with lightweight cotton in the summer. Just change the fabrics and this pattern is perfect for little girls too! Your best friend or sister who has everything, would love a Sweet Pea Easy Snap Clutch. It's got a trendy design and it's so easy to personalize for the recipient and get a totally different look with different fabrics. There's even a lot of different projects that the ever hard to buy for tween or college student would like. How about this beautiful 3-Ring Binder Pouch? I think it might even make studying more fun...well almost, LOL!
I think these luggage tags would make great stocking stuffers and they're sure to be appreciated by all your travelers. Bright fabrics will really help your bag easier to find at the airport!

  25. Katie,
    There are so very many beauties here. I had to narrow it down one by one but I think The DIY Dish 2-minute Craft Countdowns is probably my favorite b/c it has a variety of things packed together. Looks like a wonderful set.

  28. And for a second entry I think my favorite on YCMT is the raglan pattern. We cloth diaper and I can never seem to find shirts for my son and cutting off onesies gets old. I need to start making him some!
