The holiday season always seems to sneak up on you. One day you’ve got months before you even have to think about the holidays, then the next chestnuts are roasting, sleigh bells are ringing, and it’s time to start gift shopping for everyone on your list!
With supply chains backed up due to COVID-19, a handmade gift may be the perfect choice this year for all your loved ones. If you’re a seasoned quilter, you might be tired of making quilts for gifts by now. The good news is there are so many other creative quilted gifts that you can make instead. Check out some of our favorite ideas below!
Coasters
It’s always nice to get a gift you’re going to use in your daily life. Quilted coasters will make a great stocking stuffer or gift for a small exchange. They’re easy to personalize with fun patterns and colors for a quick and thoughtful gift. For an extra touch, gift them along with the recipient’s favorite beverage!
Book Cover
Help your loved ones protect their favorite books or journals with a quilted book cover! A cover on its own makes a nice present, or you can buy a journal or new book to slip inside and go with it. Top it off with a quilted bookmark and every reader and writer on your list will be pleased.
Sewing Machine Cover
Have a fellow crafter on your list? A quilted sewing machine cover is a meaningful present that will brighten up their sewing area, reminding them of you whenever they see it. Use materials that match their sewing style to make it even more personal.
Table Runner
A quilted table runner is a practical gift with endless possibilities. You can buy a premade pattern or just wing it and try stitching different blocks together. Personalize it to their home décor or go with a seasonal theme to give them something to pull out and get festive with every year.
Tote Bag
There are many fun patterns available for a quick quilted tote bag. Just add a zipper and you’re done! This multi-purpose gift will be appreciated by everyone on your list. While you’re at it, you might even want to make one for yourself to deliver all your amazing quilted gifts!
