I have always felt that personalized custom gifts are the best ones to give and receive. They don’t have to cost a lot of money but the time you know was spent making the gift makes it that much more memorable! I enjoy crafting and know that many of my readers scrapbook, knit and sew as well.
I was excited when the people at YouCanMakeThis.com emailed me to let me know about their cool name pillow and how easy they are to make with their e-book and step-by-step directions for even the most novice of crafters! You can make these pillow with just 7 different items and the book has easy-to-understand illustrations.

These make great gifts for kids of all ages and you could make the pillow even more special by using old baby clothes or fabric of special themes. Look at how cute these 2 examples are! They even give you traceable letters so that yours comes out just as perfect as these!

The folks at YouCanMakeThis.com have graciously decided to give two (2) of my lucky readers the e-book detailing how to make these adorable name pillows!

I love this pillow!! I would love the directions to make it too!! I also loved the Embellished Patchwork Twirl skirt.
I really love this website! There are so many neat projects–I especially love the Frog & Ladybug Blankies in the baby section. The pillow looks really nice and I would love to learn how to make it!
I would actually love to win this for my Mom. She's a talented seamstress and I would love for her to make my kids these name pillows and also the rag dolls that I found on this site – I love them!! Thank you!

By far my favorite were the crochet animals! The lion, tiger, frog, owl and eagle were all so cute, however, my favorite was the ladybug. This is a really neat website, I don't have a creative bone in my body but I know I can follow directions! Plus I think I could do some of these projects with my 7 year old daughter. Thank You!
