    It's not too early to think about Christmas! Which quilting gifts are you planning on giving and hoping to receive? I just hinted to DH for EQ6 and I saw him write it down and put in his wallet! As for giving, I have 1 quilt for guild charity and 1 for a family member. Also knitting a baby cardigan for my baby granddaughter and sewing her a special Christmas dress.

    I'm thinking that EQ 6 just may get put on my wish list. After reading all the posts of people talking and raving about it....
    Don't know what's on everyone else's list yet....

    I'm in a class and graduating Nov 15. We meet 3 times per week and I've experienced a lot of personal growth since I started in January. To celebrate, I'm making quilts for my 3 classmates and 1 teacher. I have 1 that I'm in the process of binding, and the other 3 quilt tops are made, so next is quilting.

    Then, I have a Xmas quilt for DB (dear boyfriend :D), and 2 I'd like to get done for friends. Those are quilt tops still in progress... oh, and chili pepper placemats for my mom and DB's mom.

    No real desires for myself yet. But for my DD's I made the oldest an owl tote and the youngest an owl pillow. For DH I am making a chocolate lab wall hanging. I am making wallets for my sister and niece. I just got started making key fobs and am sure that someone will get one for christmas. And as usual I am making matching pjs for myself and DD's (this year I have an extra pair as my youngest is only 7mos:))

    Other than orders saying we are leaving here and tickets to go along with it? Nope, no clue as to what I want. As years have gone by, there really isn't anything that I really REALLY want. Sure, there are needs, but those are different.

    All I want for Christmas is : A sewing machine with a longer throat and my kids home for Christmas! My DH would be afraid to purchase a machine and my DS goes to the inlaws 5 hours away and my DD comes home a few days after Christmas. So, I guess I will just have to wish. :(
    Gifts to give: I have 5 lap quilt tops done and 3 more to go and then some quilt machine quilting and all siblings, my mom and my DS family will all get a blankie to keep them warm this winter. Each is made with their special interest or hobby or color. It has been a lot of fun. I hope I can get them all done.
