Default A Gift for My Son's Mother-in-Law

I bought this pattern - Christmas Cactus - as a kit - all the fabric pre-cut. I pieced it and quilted it myself on my Bernina 820. We will be spending Christmas with our son and his family, including his mother-in-law. Hope she's a quilt person!

My brother passed away in March. I was given his neckties so I made this quilt for his only child, a daughter for Christmas. she received it this week and loves it. It turned out rather well, if I do say so myself.

such wonderful gift idea. great work everyone. I'm done for this year, already gifted. i'm working on next year. almost done. I'm doing gingerbread table runners, (fatctpatterns.com) to go with the table runners a 3d gingerbread house ornament 4 sides and a roof from Urban Threads. Also a gingerbread house standing (Simplicity) with a lace roof. the runners are done, working on the lace sections little by little and will do the big houses over the summer. It's all for next year. as I get it all done, I'll show photos them.

Just started making mug rugs and pot holders to keep busy when recovering from surgery. Most went to DD for her and some of her friends and employees. Maybe next time. Can't get pics.

JeanneS, I certainly love your B&W with yellow sashing... great color combination.

Neanie... your Christmas quilt is beautiful.

so many great gifts. I have already wrapped most of mine before I saw this post. I am finishing up binding on two table runners and Mystery #8. I'll try to post a picture but I always have trouble getting them the right size to download on this board.

I wrapped my little homemade pillowcases for our great-niece and great-nephews without getting pictures. But I made the pillowcases in each of their favorite colors, and embroidered their names on them.
