    I know that it may sound like it is too soon, but time is going fast. Has anyone started christmas gifts yet?
    I myself have things in mind. But I have been in one of those slumps for the last 3 months. Hope to pull my head out of the sand here real soon.

    I started in March... Hope to be done with all by November. I hate doing last minute rush... it takes the fun out of it for me... too much pressure.

    I've made some counted cross stitch motifs that I plan to frame with quilted fabrics and make into ornaments. I'd like to make a quilt and/or afghan and some clothes for a baby doll for DGD.

    I've made a few things. I have my list made if I can just stop finding more things to add to it. I'm making purses with matching wallets, portfolio, hand sanitizer holder, zippered change holder, kleenex holder and key ring. Also, making crayon portfolios, pot holders, hot pads, table runners, Raggady Ann dolls and a couple of quilts.

    Charlotte, I think I am on your Christmas gift list. Wow you really make great gifts.
    I have ideas for Christmas but haven't started any yet. I will probably put it off and then be stressed at the holidays.

    I began my Christmas shopping back in April. There is nothing I hate worse than fighting the crowds close to Christmas. While others are trying being pushed and shoved, trying to find gifts, I am home, watching a Christmas movie, with a lovely cup of spiced tea beside me.

    I had three of my nieces presents made in March, they are beach bags with their initials on them and matching towels, with sunglasses case, i have also bought them all bathers. The problem i have is my brother just had another baby girl last week, so I will have to make another bag! At least we have plenty of time until christmas. I have also purchased the fabric for my sisters present, but i can't tell you what that is as she might see it on here :)
