This tip is for those special people in our lives that are amazing at sewing, knitting, or quilting. Who are you? How do you do it? If you can’t tell already it is not something I do very well. Although, I try. Sewing and knitting are somewhat lost arts. But they are known to help decrease stress, anxiety, and relax us. There are classes to help you learn how to focus and be mindful of breathing and rest while you knit or hand sew. For those who would like to learn, there are beginner classes available. In addition, Joann Fabrics offers quick tutorials and coupons for supplies.
If you have a quilt maker in the family, Great! Send over some supplies and a picture or patch of what is representative of your family this year. Something unique to your household. Pick out the colors you would like to use for your patch of quilt. You can safely shop at the fabric store with the help of an associate or have items shipped directly. Be sure to ask whoever is making this what fabric they use and thread they desire. Joann Fabrics really helps make this easy for beginners as their staff is quite knowledgable. They have also been donating proceeds to masks and first responders another good business to support.
Lastly, if sewing or the idea of quilting, knitting, creating with thread is too much. You can do this using a professional print company. Currently, Shutterfly and Vistaprint offer blankets, quilts, photo throws and many more items. They have specials going on for the holiday as well. You can easily select the photos you want printed on the blanket or throw and have a comfortable, cozy memory. Happy Holidays and Breathe Easy!
