Hope to make this again. Right now I knee deep in Christmas presents and hope to finish all by August. I least that is what I tell myself, LOL. Annaquilts, I was thinking the same thing, as we don't swap in December. Thought it would be nice to give someone a decoration for the holidays.

I’m in! And Anna, A Christmas wall hanging sounds good to me too. I’ll be working on it while I watch Christmas movies in July on my favorite Hallmark channel. What better way to get in the mood 🧑🏻🎄

So I am an airhead. I put a long post on the thread from the last swap. Here it is-
I am hoping to start a Christmas themed one but atleast finish the one that is almost done so I can participate. Yes, 4 months is a long time but life happens, medical issues and appointments, kids needing help, work, traveling and in person friends. I want to make something nice, not just put together. It seems, I take too much time on deciding what to make or do that last push and put binding, label and a sleeve on. So there are all these partial projects. Anyone else do that?
