I cannot believe how close Christmas is. I'm working all this week and Christmas is a week from today! How did that happen? Last night I realized I absolutely had to get my packages in the mail so I knocked out this apron for my sister:
Ignore the little foot there!
My inlaws really liked the quilt I gave them. My MIL even said that she knew I put a lot of time into it-she's not crafty but her mom was so she does have some idea of how long something can take. My FIL was pleased as well.
So, I've got to make a pair of pjs for my nephew, finish some stitching on the gingerbread aprons (I'd really like to make something for my baby niece out of this gingerbread pattern, maybe a pinny) and, most importantly, finish my mom's quilt! I am really behind on it. I've sewn the blocks together and now need to get the rows sewn. I'm hoping I can do that tonight. Actually, if I sew the rows tonight, do the borders tomorrow, then I could possibly layer and start quilting Friday when the boyos are off camping.

getting started on Christmas gifts!
Aren't these aprons adorable? I saw them in a magazine and just fell in love with them. These will go to my 6 and 7 year old nieces.
