    Every year I used to buy an ornament for the Children & Grandchildren. Then I started making them using fabrics that ,I feel, represent them. BUT!! I'm running out of 'new' ornament ideas...need help!! THANKS!! & Merry Christmas!!!

    Here are some pics of past ornaments...I love crafting of any kind!! but was thinking, something with fabric. :)

    I've made these for several years now - always seem to get a good response, and they're very easy (and relatively inexpensive!).

    how about a paper pieced tree or something that you can embroider their name and the year?

    this could be cute too: http://whipup.net/2007/10/09/tutoria...cone-ornament/

    and I've done TONS of these: http://allsorts.typepad.com/allsorts...o-your-el.html

    Those are wonderful. I saw some really cute ornaments made from yo-yos at a craft fair last summer. Wish I had taken a picture.
