Homemade gifts

I've been working on several sewing projects to give as gifts. Here's a sneak peek at what I completed today. My sewing skills are in no way awesome, but I'm really enjoying learning. More details on these projects to come!

Baked Eggs

Watch "Alpine Eggs - Delia Smith's Cookery Course - BBC" on YouTube
We tried a new recipe (link above) and it was better than expected. It may become part of our usual rotation of easy recipes. Hope you try it!

Easy Ribbon Tag Blankie

Finished my very first ribbon tag baby toy today. I've always thought they were cute with a vintage kind of charm, but I never knew they were so easy to make! This was a test drive using a very helpful tutorial that I will try to post the link to later.
I love it. The tags & seams are a little crooked, but for a first attempt, I'm extremely pleased with it, even though Little Man looked at it for all of 3 seconds before zooming off to find something more exciting. :)

Update: I can't hyperlink at the moment, but here's the easy tutorial I followed for this adorable project:
