I'm NOT one of those crazy people who start thinking Christmas as soon as it feels like fall, but I've been bit in the butt a couple times due to procrastinating and lack of planning. So I've started thinking about it a little earlier this year.
But wait for it, because that isn't what this post is about. I'm so excited for this year's fun that it'll get a post of it's own. Today is about the previous years;
One year I bought scrapbooks when my sisters moved out (we all scrapbook.) I did the first page for each of their books being their move in day to their new house. They were pretty elaborate pages. I think I may have done a page for each of their dogs as well (which they all got when they moved in to their new houses.)
The there was the year I did the House-Mouse cross stitch for everyone.
Fast forward and I made everyone one no-sew quilted Christmas ornament from purchased kits. Mom also got a embroidered table runner that I finished at the last second (no really, I think I finished at 3 am Christmas day and then went to sleep for a couple hours before getting up and gifting it!)

The next year (2014) I made everyone 3 ornaments. At the time each sister had 2 children, so the idea was that the kids could take/keep one when they left - however I didn't ever get so far as to explain that one ...
