I am making doll quilts for my granddaughters.

[Kathie]

I am making a rag Christmas quilt using Yuletide Magic and various matching solid flannels.

[Cindy]

I'm planning on making 12 appliqued "feather" trees, one for each of my sewing circle buddies. Maybe if I start now I'll get them done. They're only 8"x14" but I'm a slow sewer.

Would love to have those charm squares to play with!

[Cathy Payne]

Thinking about Christmas....LOL.,! Love your block! Thanks for the opportunity to win =) Nurse Payne

[Angie]

I'm going to make a Christmas Tree from the Twister pattern, but I'm trying it without the pattern; fairly insane, but my collection of patterns says, "Please, no more for a while!." I will probably donate it to our Church Bazaar.

[ritainalaska]

i am going to cut a big star block using dimonds cut from a jellyroll ... they're fused to background and zigzagged down! no piecing!

[Jane Bitz]

This year I'm working on a red & green quilt and trying to finish for Christmas, even thought I keep saying its a red & green quilt in non-Christmas colors because its lime green and cherry red. We'll see what it turns out to be. Maybe a grinch Christmas Quilt.

[Carole B]

I'm working on a king size quilt for my parents, that I *should* have finished by Christmas. Great block and thanks for the sponsor!

[Sonya]

I am making a butterfly quilt for my mother-in-law, who loves butterflies. Thanks for the giveaway!

[Sheryl Colle]

I'm planning on a Christmas table runner.

[Kathi B]

I am planning my first Christmas lap quilt in a log cabin variation using red, green and white fabrics.

[Margaret Schindler]

I am making quilts for my children who are grown but always want quilts for Christmas.

[Karen]

I'm making a tree skirt

[Pam]

I am making place mats for my sisters and Mom. New at quilting and have a small fabric stash to work with :)

[Hueisei]

I will make some pincushions and pouch as the Christmas present.

[generationSue]

Making a blanket for my niece. Have not decided if it is going to be a quilt or crocheted. We shall see :)

[Diana Allen]

Tree skirt and some matching place mats. Sounds good, and now to just get with it.

[peggy]

Christmas ! Sorry to say, but I tend to procrastinate. Come November I will frantically try to finish a quilt and maybe a tote. Looks like I got a while till I start. In the meantime, I will dutifully collect fabric and more fabric and maybe a little fabric.

[ramona]

I'm planning a Christmas quilt for my husband using an enlarged double (or triple) bear paw. Thanks for the chance to win. Love your block.

[Bev Gunn]

Got your block done and LOVE it! Found a cute fabric with peppermint and other Christmas candies all over it and replaced the green bars with a red and it looks GREAT! (Sorry, my ADD makes it a bit difficult for me to follow a pattern to the letter. :) )
