    Am I the only one still working on a quilt that is meant to be given on Christmas day?? I'm making a throw quilt for my brother and sister-in-law with photo's from their wedding. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Maybe, but I've got one to finish for the 29th, and all I have so far is a 28"square.Good luck with the finishing of yours.

    I'm working on making some coasters for the other Pastoral Staff at our church. Everyone gave my husband a gift but we had nothing. So I have to make 7 sets of coasters and I am at work. I won't get home until after 5. So wish me luck!!!!

    You are not alone! I am finishing up for my wonderful DMIL. But I am on the last side of binding. So all I have left is the one side to be hand stitched to the back, the label and washing it.

    You're not alone. I was working on one for my mom but decided I couldn't finish it on time, so I put it aside for another time. I started it many years ago and she doesn't know about it. I have to say that it took a lot of stress out of me to decide I couldn't finish it.

    If you must give it for Christmas, but aren't able to fnish it, take a picture of part of it and put that in a card telling them they will have it in a week or so. The last thing you want to is rush through getting it finished just because of the date on the calendar.

    I'm working on a pillow that may or may not be for Christmas. I don't have to have it done until the day after though, so I have all of Christmas afternoon/night to work on it.
