I actually started on the first of September. I made 6 holiday table toppers tops, still need the backs and quilting. I have two previously made quilt tops ready for pinning for grandsons, several mug rugs and purchased more fabric for table runners. In retirement, quilted gifts are what I'm giving.

I have a Christmas gift made for one family member, I still need to make a quilt for another two. The rest will probably be purchased items. The teens always seem to like gift cards. LOL

Noooooo! I am just excited about going on vacation to MB. Most all family will be there. Nothing but sun and fun. Hopefully. I have purchased a few things. Have 6 stack and whacks made(tops) that I need to get quilted for the adult children(6). Our family doesn't need a lot. Try to get things they want.

Don't shop, kids too old, we're too old, but I'm sure we'll find just that perfect gift for GD Zoe, she will be a great age for Christmas. She did, however, get a good lesson in wrapping paper ripping from Daddy, gotta start them young.

Nooo! And I really need to get started. I have 2 quilts, 2 bathrobes and several purses, totes and kindle covers to make yet. So far I know I can still get it done but not if I don't get started.

I just bought my first gift. A set of dinner plates for my daughter. I hope to make some table runners/toppers for gifts. I'd better get busy.

Okay, did you really have to remind me. I have some things cut but not started so I better get in gear. It seems that the grandkids get harder and harder to make for each year.
