Handmade Gift Ideas (a list of free tutorials)

Hey there strangers! How is everyone? I hope everyone had a FANTASTIC Thanksgiving and are having some good luck with all the Holiday Shopping! I've been working on putting a list together of some "quick gift" tutorials for the members of the Johnson City MQG and I got to thinking, "maybe I could do a blog post and share my list with everyone!"
