Meet Maggie. Maggie the Taggie Owl, that is. She’s a cute little taggie blanket made for small hands to hold. She has small ribbon tags around her body, and a soft faux fur backing. She’d make a sweet gift to welcome a new baby! Suzanne from Just Another Hangup shares a free pattern and tutorial for making one. Get the pattern and tutorial.

Freebie: Printable Christmas Eve magic pillowcase poem
With all the excitement and expectation of Santa’s visit, it can be hard for kids to go to sleep on Christmas Eve. Melissa from Polka Dot Chair created special pillowcases for her nephews, to be used only on Christmas Eve. When she gave them to them, she included a little poem explaining that they’re magic pillowcases to help them have sweet dreams. She’s sharing a free printable of the poem on her blog, plus she links to a tutorial she’s written for making a pillowcase, so you can start the tradition with your own kids.

Your headline reads “FREE” Pattern and then you say for $5 I can get the pattern. Sounds like a bait and switc
This is an older post. When I originally published it (2012), it was a free pattern. Since then, the designer has moved it to her shop where it is available for sale. It was not intended as a bait-and-switch, at least not on my part (and I wouldn’t think on the author’s part, either.) I have no financial relationship with the designer. I receive no compensation for any of her sales. I have added a note to the post here at Craft Gossip saying that this is now a “for sale” pattern. –Anne
