I'm already making quilts to give as Christmas gifts. I will probably do some small things too -- table runners, pouches, totes. I like to have little gifts on hand that I can give when the mood strikes me.

Every year I make "plans" to make some decorative stockings (no kids around anymore!) and a nice table topper and an advent calender....so far... haven't been able to make any of them! I just don't get why I can't get them done other than I don't find any patterns or styles that I like!
