I have been making table runners for two brothers and one sister in Florida. We are going to visit them soon. We don't exchange Christmas gifts but I like to take something when I go if I can.

I started a BOM at my LQS, never have done one, will give it to a friend for Christmas when done...Also making some Valentine potholders with a very cute heart nine patch in pink...can't post pics, sorry! Old computer...pattern is from e-patterns called nine-patch heart, making mug rugs to match. Working hard on Quilts for Kids, have made 2 since December and packaged kits! I'm unemployed at the moment, using up scraps and stash!

I still have a couple of 2010 projects to finish up, then maybe I will get inspired for 2011.

Yep! I am making a cushion for my friend for her 70th birthday, she comes origially from Witchiter, Kansas but has lived in the U.K. for many years. I am making the Wave pillow out of Katherine Guerrier`s book. Creams and dark pink colours.

I plan on getting started in January, got projects in mind and all the material to start! First I have to get thru a boat load of birthdays, then our second grandchild is due. Second, I need to find some time to get started! Though I am planning on it for sure!

I've made a seasonal table topper with poinsettias one side and sunflowers on the other and I tried out my new FMQ foot by making doves on it. Unfortunately, I was so excited I forgot to change to coordinating thread and you can't see how great they came out without a magnifying glass! I am also working on a baby quilt for a due date of 1-17-11. Only four more baby quilts to go... Waiting for a box of fabrics on its way to make more table toppers.

I usually wait until spring, but I've seen so many wonderful things on here that I'm already collecting a file and might even get started earlier than usual this year. You all have been a good influence on me!
