This year, we’ve taken the best of our DIY Kits, maker supplies, and resources and put them together for our 2018 Mother’s Day Gift Guide from The School of Making. We have a little bit of everything whether you want to create a handmade gift or give the gift of making to Mom.
For the mom looking to expand her handmade wardrobe, shop the Aurora Wrap Dress, Anna’s Garden Drawstring Pant, and Fern Wrap Top DIY Kits. These styles were included in Build a Wardrobe 2017 and quickly gained popularity due to their flattering fits and laid-back style.
If you’re looking for a more beginner-friendly project, pair a machine-sewn Coverup with The Geometry of Hand-Sewing. The Coverup provides the perfect canvas for easy embellishment, and The Geometry of Hand-Sewing provides detailed instruction (plus Stitching Card templates in the back) for fool-proof embroidery.
A selection of our favorite notions and tools are available including our new Thread Nippers from Gingher, Bead Mixes, and Needle Sampler.
Pair the Swing Skirt Bundle, Magdalena Swing Skirt DIY Kit, or Anna’s Garden Long Skirt DIY Kit with The Swing Skirt: Techniques & Construction course available through Craftsy to gift the full making experience. For a simpler project, pair the Striped Scarf DIY Kit with Natalie’s newest course, Creative Embellishments.
Whatever your (or your mom’s) skill level, there is a range of options available for a thoughtful, handmade gift.
