So many have jumped aboard the Christmas Train - welcome aboard!




I've been peeking over some shoulders and have seen Christmas gifts in the making - woohoo!!!




The incredibly talented Kaaren at The Painted Quilted has finished her first gift! I was so excited when I saw it on her blog.




How are YOU doing? Have you picked out your first gift to be made this month? Are you sewing? Have you finished? I'd love to hear about your progress.




Cheryl's been working really hard getting some tutorials for ideas for YOU. I've almost finished the giveaway gift for January. teehee!!! And, I have some planned surprises, as well. :-)




No stress, no pressure just fun with wonderful results at the end of the year!!!

I really want to participate but sooooo don't have the time. We're in the middle of packing to move to a new house March 1st.

For now I'll have to watch everyone else have fun...*insert sad face*.

I'm hard at work on my first gift! I'm so glad you decided to continue this, to help keep me motivated throughout the year!

I have started but packed up my gift when I was in my "need to clean" mode in my sewing room. Just need to add a few zippers and I can cross them off the list. Bringing them back out in the daylight so that I can finish before the end of the month. That's my goal.

This is such a wonderful idea. If only I could plan and think. Have fun!

Deanna said...

My first gift is in the works, and will include a tutorial/pattern (what is the difference anyway?) to share. Thanks for the encouragement.

It's because of Christmas Through The Year that I had to create a blog of my own - just so I could be part of this bit of magical fun! I'm so excited about getting started...on both my Christmas gifts AND my blog!

Oh, this sounds like just the kick I need. I'll be joining in and hope to post soon on a gift. So excited.
Thanks so much for this little get together and inspirations we can look forward to.
