Re: what are some cute and easy gift ideas i can make
those herbal eye pillows
scrunchies
little drawstring purses for children
pouches that can slip over a glass jar for those "gifts in a jar"
maybe patch together themed fabric swatches for little doll quilts
cut up fabric with a zig zag scissor making strips and tie those around the straps of a thong flip flop (VERY big down here)
maybe check out www.etsy.com for ideas. It's an online "store" where you can sell anything and everything handmade.

I believe they are a combo of lavender and other herbs....I'm sure you can find the ingredients online!
ETA: do a search on pillowcase dresses! it's the latest "boutique" thing for little girls.
OR you can take some funky fabric and dress up a pair of overalls for little girls! On the hem, along the bib pocket (on the chest)!

I made "quillows" for all the little kiddies in my life. Really easy... I think I found the pattern online. When folded up, they look like throw pillows, but when you unfold them, they are blankets/quilts... all straight stitches, not as difficult as quilting... very fast... great options for fabrics (for adults, too).
I have also been interested in pillowcase dresses. I found a pattern on Martha Stewart's website, but have not tried it, yet.
Have fun!
