I gave her some thrifted fabric because what seamstress doesn’t LOVE unique fabric? The colors reminded me of my sister so that’s why I sent it. Then I made a simple stretch produce bag for her trips to a farmer’s market or using it at the beach for sandals. Lastly, I used a cute knit remnant to make her a pocket. She gets to sew it on a shirt meaning she gets a shirt that fits her and she gets the enjoyment of completing a project. For someone busy finishing a project feels like magic.
Want to know what my sister said about this simple gift?
I love giving gifts to fellow crafters and sewists. Here’s a list of gift ideas for crafters under $30, gift ideas for a seamstress, gift ideas for a sewist, and here’s even a gift basket idea for a seamstress!

What a great idea. Something simple can mean the world to someone, just showing how much you care. I think I tend to make things more difficult trying to go all out for someone instead of remembering that a simple card or gesture can mean everything. Thanks for the reminder.
