    From stockings, to pillows, to ornaments and decorations. More than 25 cute things to sew for Christmas!

    If you have a pile of Christmas fabric that is calling your name, then you may like some of these Christmas Sewing Projects that I’ve found online. If you like these projects, then you should also check out this roundup of 20+ Christmas Stockings to Sew!

    From stockings, to pillows, to ornaments and decorations. More than 25 cute things to sew for Christmas!

    One of my favorite things about Christmas is the opportunity to create fun and unique Christmas crafts and decorations.

    This year I am bound and determined to get ahead of myself when it comes to Christmas decorating and crafting. I’ve made the bold decision to skip Thanksgiving decorating (not Thanksgiving) and go right from Halloween to Christmas.

    Believe it or not, but I agonized over that decision (yep, it’s a total first-world problem, I get that). My current plan is to have my Christmas tree up, and the house decorated before Thanksgiving. That way I can spend the rest of the Holidays relaxing with my family. I do not want to have a “to-do” list a mile long on December 1st.

    25+ Christmas Sewing Projects

    I’ve also started my Christmas sewing. I have a really fun stash of Christmas fabric and am always looking for ideas for Christmas-themed projects to sew. I thought that you might also be on the lookout for some cute Christmas projects, so I’ve rounded up more than 25 cute things that I’ve discovered online recently.

    Most of these are free tutorials, some of them are paid patterns. I don’t mind supporting independent pattern designers and figured that you guys wouldn’t mind either!

        No, I don’t sell them pre-cut. You’d have to get someone to cut it for you. Sorry

      Just FYI, The links to the Fort Worth Fabric Studio blog no longer work. I contacted Jodie and she found it on the old blog and sent me the link. I still couldn’t open it.

        I checked it this morning and it was working fine. Maybe it’s been changed.

        You’ll need to visit the website of the company that makes the pattern to get the download. It’s not my pattern, I’m just providing a link to the pattern as a suggestion of things to make for Christmas.
