Elisabeth, you are not crazy at all. You are a very giving and practical person. Getting started at the beginning of the year makes the giving of these gifts to everyone a much less stressful experience. And I bet anyone who thinks you are crazy would certainly change their mind when they received one of your gifts so wonderfully thought out.
Thanks for the inspiration; I am going to start planning out my sewing gift list for next year this week. I actually did give a lot of handmade gifts this year (tote bags, pot holders, mug rugs, etc.) but want to do more next year and also during the year for birthdays too. Planning ahead is the key for sure.

I made table runners for Christmas gifts this year. They had a tree on them. I used up a lot of scraps with them. The tree is a square but I put 3, 4, 5 & 7 together for different lenght runners. I also made pillows from the same pattern. I would be more than happy to send you the pattern if you would pm me. It was very easy & I only outlined the tree to quilt it. If I knew how to post a picture I would show you one. But I have been unable to figure that out on the new board

Did you see e-patterns central this week. That Snowflake table topper looks very easy. Inf fact it's for a beginner so it shouldn't take long to make one. Check it out as I thought it was very nice.
