With 10 kids in the family and 16 grand children and 18 gr grand children, I make gifts. I start with making sure everyone has a Christmas stocking, table toppers, and quilts. So I sew all year to get done what has to be done. In November I make all different kinds of candy, and each family gets a box of home made candy plus whatever else I have made them. They all look forward to the things me and my husband make.
