I am planning my Christmas sewing projects. I begin a few days before Christmas and usually have a special project for Christmas Day.

I don't think you are bad, in fact I've been doing the same thing, looking forward to the projects I can start/finish after the holidays; plus hoping I finish the quilt for our DGD in time for Christmas. Wish me luck.

I used up a lot of my Christmas fabric this year just sewing strips together and making place mats. So, I am really looking forward to the day AFTER Christmas fabric sales to replenish what I used this year... I already have several cute table runner patterns picked out for NEXT Christmas.... ho ho ho

I always totally finish one quilt before starting another. While I am finishing up a quilt I start planning the next one.
I have given all my family, some friends and some I don't even know as many quilts as I want to. I am just storing these until I find someone that needs a quilt.
I have no projects for Christmas. I will get most Grandkids Gift cards and will buy 6 month old Great Grandson a stuffed animal. Grandkids range from 26 to 11.

No, it isn't bad. Even though I have 3 quilts in progress right now, I am looking forward to my first Dear Jane class that begins the first Saturday in Jan. I am really excited to finally get going on this. Can't wait!

I hope it's not bad! I just finished up Christmas and some UFOs (for a friend that can no longer quilt due to ALS). I've been holding off starting Bonnie Hunter's new mystery. I get to start it today!! YEAH!!!

That's a great idea! I have 'many' projects to do that are found in various bags and places in my quilt room. Labeling them in shoe boxes (or something standard-sized in one place) would be a reality check not to buy more fabric till I finish these projects! New Year's resolution????
