Mother’s Day is coming up fast!
If you’re like me, then you probably love giving the mothers in your life something that’s handmade. And, if you’re really like me, then you haven’t even started to make your gifts yet.
We’re officially 4 days away and the time crunch has begun to make the perfect present.
Here are some projects you can make in a flash that any mom would love:

# 8: The Bee Happy Carryall Bag

This bag is too cute to ignore and it’s perfect for summer! The best part: it stitches up quicker than you would think because it’s made with bulky-weight yarn.

You can stitch up this fun and lacy poncho in no-time. It’s perfect for spring days and cool summer nights and Mom is guaranteed to love it.
# 10: The Wonky Heart Pocket Scarf

This scarf is perfect for the moms that hate having to carry their purses—the large pockets can fit their necessities and they can leave their heavy bags at home. The neutral colors of this scarf look great with any outfit, and the hearts are lovely touches.
