Sm. victory remembered the other Christmas print so worked on that today yea for moving on.
I have two of the bags done that will not be used for our family they are going into the fund raiser bag.
Finally got one bag done for the family Christmas. I am half done with this batch now, this one turned out really cute! Glad I remembered red and green fabric. Using twine for fund raiser draw strings for a country look. I forgot to get red and green ribbon for these so adding that to the list.

Re: *** Holiday Planning, 2016 ***
Got way laid this week felt puny stalled out on progress, and yard work called with the last of the nice weather I needed to pay attn. To some of that.
I want /need to get more kinds of squash for the fal decor on the front steps, this will be food for us and animals later on.
More bags for gifts need to be sewn up betting to the last of these. Bday gift ones will need to be considered and then aprons & totes. One yesr I did dry soup mix in bag that was a hit. Other years I did apron in a bag. Dgd was going to take cooking class saw a white chef hat &
Apron could be a set at Joann's if I run out of time...

Re: *** Holiday Planning, 2016 ***
I am so happy that you are feeling better and were so productive as well.
I am going to be doing the kitchen over the next two weeks - 1 item each time as life is busy. great idea d nancy.
yesterday I got the last tape d mom wanted for christmas ... hoping she remembers and doesn't buy it for herself before the holidays.
I am pulling my halloween out ... I have some decorations out
but this year (since we haven't been using basement) I will pull thanksgiving and Christmas decorations out and put them in the corner of the basement.

If needed we will go to the buffet. I have two more larger bags nearly ready to put together. Worked on decluttering the creativity room.
