Happy New Year

January 6, 2021 By A Spoonful of Sugar - Leave a Comment

Wishing you a a wonderful 2021 filled with good health, happiness, and creativity. Thanks so much for all your support during 2020. I am looking forward to a brand new year and hope to find more time for sewing and creative pursuits.

At the end of each year, I like to reflect on my top posts of the year and share my Top Nine over on Instagram. It is fun to see what patterns are most popular and I was glad to find most of my favourite makes for the year included. They are listed below with the links to the actual patterns in case you would like to make your own.

  1. Hexie Holiday Placemat
  2. Travel Sewing Kit
  3. Dresden Placemat
  4. Retro Drawstring Bags (free tutorial)
  5. Handy Drawstring Pouch
  6. Handy Drawstring Pouch
  7. Gifted with Love Pouch
  8. Scrappy mini stocking
  9. Dresden Placemat

We love to give some home made gifts to family/friends at Christmas. This year we made a batch of festive candles – cinnamon spice and white Christmas scented. We upcycled bonne maman jars which worked perfectly with our Christmas theme.

I have a few projects planned for the next couple of months. I hope you will continue to follow our adventures, here on the blog and over on Instagram. It is hard to believe that this will be our 14th year as A Spoonful of Sugar.

Best wishes for an extra special 2021!
