Tonight, as I write this, I am knee deep in Christmas quilts. I think I was just raised that if it's Christmas then there are blankets and quilts to be made. And this year is no different.

Felt Christmas Pillows with Tutorial
I needed some easy teacher's gifts for the Holidays this year...and have kind of made it a tradition to do a handmade gift and then a gift card for school supplies.
