I've already got a box going - some late arriving on line orders - some quilts not finished in time. My kids give me a hard time about shopping 12 months of the year for Christmas. Sometimes I see something that is just perfect for someone - if I wait it won't be there later. I did have to come up with a system so I remember where I put everything and don't get the same item twice. Spreading out the purchases over the year makes the budget crunch less overbearing in December.

Sure, I've even bought one present. Found the perfect item for a step daughter-in-law. And got some really nice crochet baskets at a good price. I'm going to line them and make bread baskets to hold gifts for some married grandchildren. One can never start too early making or buying Christmas presents.
