Christmas is a time for sewing!

I always make some sort of crafty item each Christmas. I was so afraid that this year I wouldn't have enough time to get that done. I got some fat quarters (pre-cut quilting fabric for all you non-sewers) to make my project easier and began cutting squares for lap quilts. Granted, I've never quilted before, but that was just a minor set back. My mom can do ANYTHING!! Mom came down yesterday (she and Daddy will stay til Monday morning) and she's been helping me put my 2 quilts together. I'll quilt them at her house (her sewing machine has a roller foot that will make quilting easier), but wanted to show you all a picture of my first 2 quilts.

One will go to one of my cousins for Christmas and the other will go into the Dirty Santa game we play at Mama and Papa's every year.

So, good luck to you all--I'll be trying to win my own present too!
