Guess my family is different they all love and almost expect a homemade gift.With 4 kids, 11GC, 2stepGC. and 2 GGC I have to start right after Xmas to keep up.Right now I have given an IOU for a scrap quilt for birthday in Nov. All my nieces and nephews also love quilts so every new baby gets one! That is one of the reasons I quilt, knit, and sew as I know that all the family loves homemade!
