I have my list made but have not actually sewn anything yet. I did purchase a couple of things for gifts though so I guess that is a start. Seems like lots of people have hit a sewing slump lately - myself included. I did start cutting out some quilt blocks today so maybe I can get my mojo going . Hope you do too. :lol:

If I made something now chances are I would probably forget about it by Christmas. :oops: I usually make small items, like purses and little make up bags in November/December. Good for you for getting a head start!!

Ordered Dr. Seuss Christmas panels and I am waiting for flannel backing to arrive to make my little grandchildren cozy Christmas quilts to snuggle under. They both love the Grinch. Have also started a Christmas BOM from my LQS.

I shop and make things all year long. Hate to get stuck in the Christmas rush with all the late shoppers. I can enjoy myself once Thanksgiving is over and can concentrate on our own decorating, tree and all those lovely Christmas things.

I myself have things in mind. But I have been in one of those slumps for the last 3 months. Hope to pull my head out of the sand here real soon.

And last winter I put all my prints away for making another few dozen of the Christmas stocking mug rugs shown here. So, I can grab that bag and start at a moment's notice.

Thisis as far as I have gotten; just picking the center of the angel quilt that I want to do. I posted it elsewhere, but I have to design around it. I saw some quilts at the Omaha show thread that gave me ideas. I guess I need to start drawing it out.

I started hand quilting one of my mom's quilts for her for christmas, she doesn't know as it's been in her closet unfinished for the last 10 years. I also have 3 other people I need to make quilts for and am planning patterns in my head. I'm going to need to get started soon!
