    Wow, seeing the 8 weeks away made me think I better get moving on my Christmas list. Last year, for quilty friends i made the ornaments with fabric pushed into styrofoam balls. (google the free tutorial) Also, I put selvages or thread in the glass ornaments. (fast and fun to make). I wish I could upload pictures of other gifts but the photos won't load due to the size I think.

    All the little ones are getting glow in the dark pillow cases. I had fun when I was doing Row by Row shop hop to find different glow in the dark fabrics. Not easy as most of it is scary Halloween fabric but I did find some stars, planets and such. The grown ups are getting pillow cases with Seminole patchwork on the cuff. Granddaughters are getting quilts to curl up with. I also made some felted wool dryer balls to use when you dry clothes. Family is all I exchange gifts with.

    Last year I made microwave bowls, pot holders and decorated dish towels with patchwork borders.

    1000scraps, Love the key ring pouches. I hope you can put a tutorial on. And what are the loops? I also like your mug rugs. I've had those on my to-do list for sometime.

    I am making some table runners for a few family members. It seem to be coming too soon.

    I only wish! Had knee replacement Sept 2nd then fell 5 days later & broke my femur on the same leg. Now can't walk until after Christmas! My sewing room is upstairs & a million miles away.
