Hi,
My quilting group is doing a gift exchange. I need to take about 20 little gifts.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Pot holders, mug rugs, or anything small like that would work great. You can also do up Christmas ornaments, though be careful to make sure that everyone in the group celebrates Christmas. I have several Jewish friends that get very frustrated around this time of year because everything is Christmas related & they always feel left out.

There are other things that would work great. You can make a needle holder that goes around the wrist or over the finger; pincushions, et cetera.

Hope this helps.

Note cards, decrative or blank or create a set of about 4 cards for each person; Christmas tree ornament; quilted coaster set... all depends on how soon you need the gifts and how much time you have and if there is a dollar limit to spend. Just thoughts that popped into my head.

How about book marks, they aren't expensive, you can make them quick and everyone can use it!
