I spent this week pulling out patterns for gifts. Took delivery of tea towels from Missouri Quilt Co, they had a great sale and selection; plan to make many gifts out of them using different themes for different folks. Most ambitious is a sampler, 12 Days of Christmas from Quiltmaker. I'd really like that to hang in our home, but as in past years I always run out of time. So starting this early just might let me accomplish what I want to do.
