    I am making bed runners for couples, throws for my 2 nieces, 2 nephews and 3 grandsons. I've got the throws made and 1 bed runner made. Doll carriers for my 2 great nieces.
    Also, a good friend is having a baby due the middle of December, so making several snuggleys and toys, onsie with tie.
    I'm having a blast.

    Ooh. Never thought about bed runners. I make a lot of pillowcases for my family. Am working on a couple of lap quilts but don't know if I will be done by Christmas.
    Ditto on any tree skirt links...

    Tomorrow, I am taking a Christmas quilt to the LAQ. The quilt is for one of my daughter's foster children who has autism. I have finished one king size Christmas quilt for my daughter; but I still have to make matching pillowcases. I am working on the borders of an appliqué lap quilt for her. That quilt, I plan to quilt myself. I have 2 quilts at the LAQ's that will be Christmas gifts and a quilt for my sister that is finished. I have plans for several more quilts for Christmas. I'll probably still be making Christmas gifts on Christmas Eve,

    I made a stocking tonight. I need to refine the pattern but I think I did well for my first go.

    I have Christmas table runners i haven't finished from last Christmas. That's the only thing I was thinking of for quilted gifts.

    Oh, yes, 3 handbags - done, 1 teacher's tote - done, 1 Christmas tree skirt - done, 1 folding chalk board - done, 1 wall hanging, almost finished - still some hand quilting to finish & binding. Then I will be finished with Christmas, and thinking of what I will be making for 2014 Christmas.
