I'm working on Christmas quilts. I have a large family so will make as many as I can. So far I have two made and am finishing a top for a third today. Not everyone will get a quilt but I do the best I can. :thumbup:

What happened to Autumn, Halloween and Thanksgiving. Christmas-yikes
|
I've got 8 mini quilts for my grand daughter's dollbabies, as she calls them done and I am working on table runners, placemats and pot holders as well as oven mitts, yoga tote and pillows for a nephew's man cave. Whew now I'm tired!!! Been working on all this since April and slowly but surely getting it done!!

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.

I am. I have three tops completed & working on two others. Then I will have to quilt them all.
|
Not quilts, just runners and placemats.

I just bought a Kanvas Frost layer cake & some yardage. I am going to turn the quilt for our advanced quilting class into a white, silver & blue Christmas wall hanging. I'll have leftover to make a table runner & maybe a small tree skirt.

No, not this year. Family has all been taken care of and this year's quilts are 'just because'. Today I shared all my Christmas fabric with my mom for candle mats. I don't feel guilty like I thought I would but actually relieved. I am going to enjoy quilting this year without any rhyme or reason. 'Just because'.

Great idea for the reunion table runner. I have one next week. I was going to do a postage stamp quilt but only have 5 rows done. I think the table runner will be less stress. I don't make any quilts for Christmas anymore. I make and give them away all year long.

One runner is going to my husband's family reunion blind auction today, and the other will go to one of my siblings as a Christmas present. I'm trying to force myself to do something different now - those half hexi runners are so nice, and so, so quick I can see myself having about 20 of them by Christmas.
