Helens Closet patterns that make great gifts:
Our most recent pattern, the Dogwood Apron, is an excellent gift for any maker. It is also perfect for all your fabric scraps and it doesnt take long to sew! Try making one for the gardener or handy-person in your life.
Awhile back, Helen wrote a post on how to Give the Gift of Suki, which includes lots of helpful tips on how to speed up and simplify the sewing process to make sewing Suki for your loved ones easier for the holidays. Suki makes an excellent gift! Wouldnt you like to receive a handmade robe to swan around in? We know we would!
This pattern would make a very special gift for someone important to you. It may be a bit more involved for a gift project, but it will be a really amazing present. Pona isnt very fitted, so you dont have to rely on exact measurements to make one that will work beautifully!
Costa is an all-around me-made holiday win; free pattern, no sizing necessary, quick and easy to sew, and you can scrap-bust as well. Additionally, you could sew some Costa Totes and put some extra goodies inside, like a jar of reusable makeup pads, a sleep mask, a scented candle, jellybeans, whatever! That way, you accomplish a me-made gift stuffed with extra gifts that is also its own wrapping paper!
Blackwood is an excellent choice for a me-made garment gift because its such a forgiving pattern. You dont really have to have the recipients exact measurements to make them a cardigan that will fit them nicely. Not to mention, since this pattern is finished entirely with bands, it makes for a quick sew and an excellent pattern for batch sewing. You could even leave off the pockets to speed up the process!
This apron is an expansion pack for our York Pinafore pattern! It would make an extra-special gift for the chef or craftsperson in your family. Like Blackwood and Suki, the York Apron pattern is quite forgiving, so you dont need exact measurements.
This fun and easy scrap-buster is so quick to make that you can take care of a bunch of gifts at once, say, your coworkers, nieces and nephews, or friends! And added bonus it will help reduce your scrap pile!
