Quilting for Christmas. Anyone else?
#22
I haven't started on anything yet. I mentioned making new stockings for all of us as our family has grown. The daughter I mentioned it to was adamant - no new stockings!! I suggested that each of my daughter's could take their stockings home to their houses but she said no, they must all stay together. What to do with a sentimental 30 y/o?

Yep have just cut out fabric for a double quilt for a very dear friend of mine and am also making some cute very small bags which will hold a lavender bag to hang on door handle/in wardrobe for family members to go with their pressies

I had two quilts done. now I gifted one to my daughter for her birthday and the other will go to my son next month for his. argh! so I am making table runners and gifting a basket of jams/syrups and pancake mix to them all. Yup got the jam and syrup done phew so to make a pretty set of napkins and maybe placemats.. see how time goes. No time like the present to think of presents lol. I do not like to be caught with my pants down for sure. I am on SSI so that means there is not a lot of play money at all come Dec. its nice to start early. Next year I will make a set of four wall hangings for each of the kids. ok maybe aprons the girls love aprons all cutesied out.. fifities style for one. My sis wants a LONG apron with a monster pocket. She is very short. Hope she doesnt trip on it! I am thinking of making this pattern for it: [ATTACH=CONFIG]429406[/ATTACH]

Oh so glad I don't do Christmas gifting. At present heat wave in UK so I am making tops only. These will be sandwiched and quilted in the winter when cooler weather means I can snuggle under the thicker quilt.
