I have been working on a lot of my stuff lately for xmas gifts including sewing for other people that asked to pay me to sew things. I'm willing to do the sewing so I can afford to buy other gifts. Getting to the point I am burning out and not wanting to do any sewing. Guess it is time to take a brake for a week or two.

Just finished the last one a couple days ago! :-D Now all my nieces and nephews have lap quilts or wall hangings made by me. I can finally start on one for me.

I made coral beaded bracelets this week for a couple people on my list. They came out nice. I like to give a handmade and a store bought gift.

This thread inspired (terrified) me into making a list. OMG ! what did I get myself into? I have two birthday quilts done. My girls all three have fall/winter birthdays. Making them all Christmas lap quilts, or throws. So here is my list of things I have to do before Christmas, baring any changes, or additions.

Dragon Costume for Halloween
Birthday quilt
3 bigger quilts for the girls for Christmas
Ring Stacker for granddaughter
bed quilt for oldest grandson (started, just need quilted and bound)
Dragon stuffie for middle grandson
Boy doll for youngest grandson

I have most all the stuff bought for these project, I just have to make them. I just keep coming up with other projects I want to do. I need to buckle down and get these done.

Then a baseball twin size.

Also, bind my DD's quilt. Or, make a ruffle. I'm leaning toward ruffle.

Very cute fairy fabric.

Hi, In between getting a new grandbaby, Lily, and getting hardwood floors put down in living room, dinning room, and hallway, I have completed two quilts... one, airplanes for my 8 1/2 month old grandson, Maverick, and a lovely purple themed one for my sister. I have to learn how to put pictures on here.....Next, a quilt for my daughter, then, who knows? I do have two or three baby quilts I want to finsih.
