    The “Make this pretty purse with this free pattern that any girl would be excited to carry.” is not a free pattern, but it is only around $7-$8 at http://www.noodle-head.com…..I know because I bought it just last week.

    Thanks for the ideas! I plan on making homemade gifts this year. I’ll be doing some lotions, soaps, rice heating pads, and such. Fun fun fun!

          Really JoAnn? Was that necessary? Sorry Heidi, haters gonna hate. I think the fact that another responder provided the necessary info is correction enough. Craft on! And thanks for sharing.

    Good idea to start on them now 😉 I love giving handmade gifts for Christmas but my ideas are always a little too lofty based on the spare time I have during the holidays to make them. Great list!

    I like the idea with birthdays calendar a lot!
    I have a bad memory for numbers so it would be a great gift for myself 🙂

    Do you have a phone number to call in an order. I have been hacked in the past and I ended up having to pay to get my computer cleaned up, change my bank account and open a new debit card. I no longer give my card number to the computer.

    I love your site and would like to place an order.

      You can order my patterns right there on the sidebar of the site, I don’t take orders over the phone.
