    I would LOVE to help out with the 100 that your goal is set at! Do you think it would need to be Christmas fabric? I know my husband and all his friends (and me too) are reeeeeal into football . . . maybe a use sports fabric?

    As soon as I get my garden in order I'll start sewing. I have tons of Christmas fabrics just itching to be made into something special. Thanks for the info.
