Had my sew day with my BFF again. I didn't actually do any sewing. I broke my little toe and I had to take lots of breaks to put it up. Despite that I did get a lot of projects in the works. Cut out what I could of a quilt for my MIL. Cut out the main pieces for another Sugar Cookies tablerunner. Mapped out a block design using Moda's Barnyard Buddies charm pack. For all of these I need to purchase fabric before I can proceed further.
I also did some stipple quilting on my D9P quilt but her lighting isn't very good so I stopped. Also my mom built me a version of the Flynn quilt frame as per a post here where someone's husband made one for her. It is in the mail and I should get it thursday or friday. I want to try it for this D9P quilt.
Pretty good for one day. I really need to start thinking about Christmas presents but am struggling to come up with ideas. The men in the family hate quilts and I made them pillowcases last year. None of them use the pillowcases :( So, I probably will end up not sewing anything for them this year.

There is a thread on gifts for men somewhere on this Board. It ran about 2 weeks ago, I think. I'm not good at getting you directed to the right information, but a search of mens gifts might do the trick.
