    Hi,

    I was wondering if you would be willing to share some quilted Christmas gifts. This may sound early, but I need to start in August to get everything done for THE BIG DAY!!

    Thanks!!

    Drew

    I am thinking about this too.

    Wall hangings (Dresden plates as wreaths)
    Table runners
    Ornaments- I call these ornamomentos
    Tote bags
    Place mats
    Aprons

    A lot of people have holiday stuff so how about winter themes or something for 2011? Or even the Chinese New Year?
    Then the gift outlasts the holiday. Of course the holiday fabrics are gorgeous.

    I want to make some of the reuseable shopping bags. Good sturdy ones in cute fabrics!

    Thanks!

    I, agree, with all the time spent on these gifts it would be nice to use them other than at Christmas!!
