    Have your done tiny stockings? I like to do small patchwork Christmas stockings with enough room inside to put in a gift card or folded paper money. I do some pieced no name ones for a quick gift for someone I forgot and I embroider the names on the front of the family ones. I hang them on the tree for the Christmas season. They are handy for paperboy, mailman etc.

    Sorry don't have any ideas for you but wanted to say I love all of your projects, especially the Dora ornament. My little DGD would love to have one of those on her tree.

    Go to Angie's Bits and Pieces site. She has a "Freebies" section with several really cute ornaments to make. I love that site.

    These 'potholders' are actually ornaments !! There is no sewing ....alll done with folded fabric & a glue stick!! I thought of them as 'mini' quilt ornaments!!

    What great ideas! It's hard to believe, but you're right, it's time to get started on Christmas gifts. My LQS has been running an event once a month called, "Twelve Days of Christmas." She is teaching a new project every event. We've learned some new ideas for Christmas gifts.
