Santa says: "Only 82 More Sleeps"

Well, mostly... if you are of a certain age it is debatable as to whether or not you'll actually sleep... just sayin...


Every year in January, without fail, I make my "Christmas Quilt Gift List" for that year.... 358 days to plan, fabric shop, cut and piece to be all ready for Christmas Quilt Giving for that year.  And every year, about this time of year, without fail, I find myself racing the clock.  (Don't judge.)


Here is what needs to be done and in the mail or gifted in the next 82 days...or about then, anyway.

Church ladies brunch silent auction. Due October 31st  (but needs to be delivered before I leave on a business trip so make that October 13th.)


As you might guess, this is the one I am furiously
working on this very moment.

Son's new-baby quilt. A Girl.  (YES!  I am going to be a g-ma again!  This time to a sweet girl.) Due for the shower October -- Oh wait, it has been postponed...again.  I don't actually have a shower date, but the baby is due Christmas Eve.
(OH!  They should name her Christmas Carole! I'm texting Matt right now!)
  



Mommy & Me





















Niece's baby quilt.  It's a boy. Quilt is due for the shower October 13.  (But I'm not attending the shower because I'm leaving on a business trip so she will get it before the end of the year.)

As you can see, it has a way to go.

Niece's older-daughter quilt.  Different niece, but she lives in the same city as the above niece (the babies will be cousins).  I'm planning to send them together, sometime before the end of the year.


























My Brother's and Sister-In-Law's scrappy lap quilts.  And, HALLELUJAH,  the brother's is COMPLETELY done and the S-I-L top is done.  I'm going to tie the S-I-L top on my up-coming business trip.  They may be the only two who actually receive their Christmas Gift Quilts for Christmas!

I think I'm going to call in to work sick for the next 80 days....
