I'll be happy to nag you but come up with my own list, I think not. I have several projects to finish before I even start the nine stockings I'm planning to make and have bought the material for and can't think beyond that. Good luck, keep us posted on your progress.

My list? Okay, right off the top of my head..
I have five quilts to quilt - one for each of my children - quilt tops ready.
Table runners and wall hangings for the rest of my family members
Two quilts to put together (blocks complete) and quilt for my SIL & brother.
Christmas will be here before I know it and I really would like to be ready for it - I better get started now! Listing it helped, thanks!

Lacelady and Buddysmimi - I want to personally thank you for all the love you put into the quits for the Linus Project. I work as a nurse home visitor for high risk/low income first time moms and their babes. When we make our first home visit after they deliver, we take them a hand crafted quilt. Many of them are provided by Project Linus. These mums struggle to make ends meet and try very hard to be good mums. Part of helping their little ones motor development is "tummy time" and these wonderful quilts provide a nice soft clean place for the baby to practice holding their head up and finally to sit and crawl. Once again, THANK YOU!
(Soon, I hope I am confident enough in my quilting skills to join the team. One of the leaders is a member of my quilting guild.)

I wish I could sew more. I have been baby sitting this summer. She is going to the other babysitter the first of august.
I have a table runner and a wall hanging to finish quilting.
A queen sized quilt to quilt and bind.
A ton of cosmetic bags for all my sister in laws and mother in law
An iron caddy and pressing station for my neighbor
If I can get these done I will be one happy woman. I just need to stay focused.

Embroidery Library has just put a tutorial up showing one way to make the Christmas Tree Napkins - great timing, right? :D It shows how to mark for machine embroidery, but those techniques could also be used to place marks for applique.

if this doesn't work (sometimes the pictures don't show up) go to the website.
My mom bought one and said she loves it and told me to make a bunch for Christmas gifts. hahaha I saw this posted last year on this site and planned to make them but ran out of time. OH MY I hope that doesn't happen again this year. :roll:
