5 Gifts to Sew for Mother’s Day (& beyond!)

If you’re in need of gifts to sew for Mother’s Day (& beyond), look no further! Mother’s Day is a great holiday to sew for because moms always love a handmade gift. It’s fun to find a gift to sew that is easily personalized for different people, so you can make one to suit each mom in your life! Think about sisters, nieces, aunts, daughters and even teachers who are moms, and gift them one of these five gifts to sew up in no time.

SPA MASK GIFT

Create an in-the-hoop spa mask using plush, luxurious faux fur (minkee, Cuddle and even fleece will work). The celestial design on the spa mask front is easily customizable using different thread colors to suit the recipient. Grab the design and create one for all the moms in your life! Don’t forget the Sulky Solvy® topper, which is needed for embroidering plush fabrics.

WINE-LOVER GIFT

Personalize a kitchen towel printed with wine bottles with a funny phrase or monogram. This gift to sew is made extra special with a bottle of the recipient’s favorite Rosé or Merlot! (Featured design is Wine Word Art by Designs by Juju.) Note: If you’re stitching a design that may compete with the towel print, first embroider the design onto a matching solid fabric. Then, appliqué the fabric to the towel after embroidery is complete.
