In today's world of instant Internet gratification, does anyone actually hand-write anything any more? Here at S4H, we'd like to think so. And, we'd like to think the handwritten recipe and the personalized gift tag will be two things with enough old-fashioned goodness to never completely go away. I know some of the most cherished items in my own 'save box' are a couple recipes written in my mother's beautiful cursive on dog-eared slips of paper and a simple gift tag made from wrapping paper scraps and stickers. In honor of these vintage traditions, we have two special downloads for you today as part of our Kitchen Confections series for Moda Fabrics: matching recipe cards and gift tags. Use them to create your own 'save box' memories.

Wedding bells peal throughout the year, but spring and summer are the true busy seasons. If invitations to showers and weddings are already covering your refrigerator, we have five ideas that are sure to be gift table stand-outs without breaking the bank. Each starts with one or more of our classic S4H projects, then we take it to the next level by adding clever suggestions for personalizing and stylizing. That sounds like "happily ever after" for everyone!

The big graduation milestones are high school and college, but these days, there also seem to be momentous occasions springing up around graduating from middle school, grad school, trade school or just the school of hard knocks. If they start celebrating making it through kindergarten, I'm drawin' the line. For the bonafide graduates on your list, we've collected five great gift ideas, each of them based on a fast and easy S4H tutorial and each including fun suggestions for how to kick it up a notch with extra special add-ons.

Earlier this year, we received a very inspiring email from Judy Fennemore of South Africa, regarding our Quick Trip Diaper Bag. Judy was writing on behalf of the Kwa-Zulu Natal Quilters guild and their plans to host the South African National Quilt Festival and Competition in 2015. Judy was hoping to use our popular diaper bag project as part of a fundraising workshop. Traditionally, because all the content on Sew4Home is copyrighted, we do not allow any of our projects or articles to be republished in any way, however, this request was so interesting, we decided to make an exception. Their fundraising workshop was held last month, and we just received some great pictures from Judy to share.
