Christmas gifts

Last year I kinda flaked on getting any of my nephews or nieces anything for Chirstmas. This year I decided that I was going to get them something. In fact I decided to make the gifts! This is not like me. I am one of the most uncrafty people I know. (Though I am trying to change that.) I got all excited about this gift making idea, got everything I needed and then.....let it sit. My sewing machine is sitting on a table in my living room, so I would look at it and think to myself....'mmm I really should get started on the projects I've commited too.' Well I got some of the items done and then stopped again. Well this week I found out that my sis-in-law that lives in Idaho is coming down for Thanksgiving. This made me decided that I needed to get off my bum and get going. If she is coming down then I can just hand her the gifts instead of spending more money and shipping them. This morning I finished the last gift for her family!! I am sooo proud of myself! Ya I still have like a bunch more to do, but I got the biggest family done! That means that I should be able to get the rest done with not alot of problems! I know this sounds lame, but I did it! LALALALALA!!!! I'm so proud of myself!
This is a picture of my neice Meagan. She is wearing a tutu that I made and that I am making the girls. I'd show you what I am making the boys, but I don't have pictures yet. The older boys are getting aprons and the younger ones are getting capes. So far they have all turned out pretty good I think!
