    I always make my few gifts. One, because I like to, two, because I don't like "shopping"(for fabric is different)LOL

    This year, I'll be making sets of pillowcases for everyone with fabrics based on their interests.

    I have been doing this for two years now. It's the only thing I can do for so many and keep cost down. One year I made everyone mittens.....they fought over them! LOL.....The guys at church know to guard their sweaters.

    Always! I generally make small gifts for 20+ women in my life, so I come up with something new every year. Last year was cross-stitched bookmarks, the year before was quilted potholders, etc. :) Still need to decide what to do this year....

    I think I will do potholders this year. I haven't made those yet and it should be something easy enough to do. I did lapquilts for my family last year.
