So many good ideas! I am just finishing up the quilts I started for last year's birthdays, sigh.
Things I WANT to make: PJ pants for DSIL & niece, mug bucket organizers (Simplicity 2450), quilted potholders, crocheted amigurumi, crocheted potholders. Not to mention crocheted scarves and blankets for charity (told DH that "leftovers" need to be used for _something_).
Anything not ready for the holidays defaults to a birthday item. ;-)
