I don't even know HOW to make a quilt--so trust me, my kids aren't waiting for that from me. I've made an afghan or two, but I'm better with the small stuff. Don't knock yourself out my dear. If it were me--I'd go get another present and tell the kids that the quilts were coming on the summer train. That's right, because Christmas isn't suppose to kill anyone--especially not the mom! I do wish you were one of my neighbors because then--you'd just have to come on over and sit on the floor and eat fudge and pie and ice cream and ridiculous stuff along with us. Well, once we wrangled it away from El Baldo, of course. What fun that'd be! I adore you--you know... Ahhhh—wait now.

The plan was a levi quilt for the 3 married kids. That changed to a larger family gift for 2 of them and 1 levi quilt, I should surely be able to manage that - right? Not exactly - I still have 3 pairs of levi's to cut (will finish as soon as I finish here) then on to the sewing part and maybe I'll have a top to give them with the promise to finish it sometime before the camping season returns - ugh! I think I need to follow you around for a day and figure out how you get sooooooo much done. I'm not letting any of mine near you blog ever again - they'll be asking Santa for another mother. PS I sure wish I was one of your neighbors - I'm sure I'd be able to sense when the "neighbors plates" were ready and head over to get mine before the uhm uhm bald kid had a chance to sample mine :) Merry Christmas You’re way ahead of the game in the finishing department from me.
