With everyone and everything going green these days you could always make reusable market bags. You could even quilt some using Insul-Bright as the batting for cold food items! There are tons of patterns online for them but if you don't find one you like grab a reusable the next time you are in the store and rip it apart and use it!

I always love to make Christmas presents too -- but what do you make grandkids who have everything and then some who have nothing??
