I made 3 christmas theme lap quilts for Xmas gifts (my mom, mother in law and sister). Two were Yellow brick roads and one was the starry eyed quilt from the moda bakesop site. I wish I had taken pics, especially since I am stillnew this.

I made green tomatoe pincushions for members of my quilt group that meets in Juliette, Ga where they filmed some of Fried Green Tomatoes. I used green tomatoe print fabric. Then for the guild I belong to, I made red velvet strawberry pincushions. I was going to add some brown crushed velvet, making them chocolate covered. I ran out of time, plus i hated to cover up the strawberry. I really enjoyed making them!

3 quilts ranging in size from lap to full (FMQ'd by me), 1 small wallhanging, 4 appliqued potholders, several appliqued towels, some knit scarves, 1 pr. bootie slipper sox and 1 crocheted afghan. I think that's it - making things kept me out of the stores and save money because I didn't have time to shop with these projects to finish.

I made rug mugs for overseas friends, and the microwave bowls. Also, some pillow cases and a couple of baby quilts. But I was so happy that I finally got to make the quilts, I gave them as a early gift.

I made my 2 yo great granddaughter a blanket for her baby. I used leftover strips of flannel from my burp cloth making days. I also made a felted wool earflap hat for one of our white elephant gifts and a pair of felted wool slippers for my mother in law. That's it. That's in addition to all the baking I do for gift baskets.
