Make a Christmas Gift

Ellie and Tom in Tudor costumesHow are you doing with the Make a Christmas Gift Challenge? I have to confess, I haven't yet started on dad's waistcoat. I did do a lot of sewing though. I made historical costumes for two of my children. Their school organises historical days each year, and sends home a description of what sorts of clothes the children should wear on the day to get into the feel. The teachers dress up too, it's always great fun. Last year everyone was1 Vikings, and the year before it was WWII. This year they were Tudors.

Dad, if you could email me or phone me with your chest measurement. That's all I need to know to make you a waistcoat. I promise I'll get stuck in straight away. I enjoyed making the kids' costumes and I'm in the mood to do more garment sewing.

22 of you voted already to say you have started making Christmas gifts, so I'm definitely behind the field but I'm determined to catch up. If you haven't already voted, why not? You can find the poll in the right-hand sidebar.

Those children look marvelous! Reminds me when I was a small boy that my auntie and my grandma made me and a cousin Norwegian garb to wear for the 17th of May festival in Fairdale, North Dakota USA

meh! i haven't started yet either... though i did finish knitting a beanie for my cousins baby... just great timing considering it's summer. and even better that they live in Queensland where they don't even have a winter... but yeah it's a start :)

My gift making ground to a stand still, but now I'm thinking of getting stuck back in again.
