The kids are all grown, and the gbaby has more than enough for 10 kids. He’s the only gbaby and the only great gbaby on both sides of the family. Grin I’m making him a blankie and the jammies and got him a few wooden puzzles.

I’ve made all my sisters and hubby’s quilts and afghans and... I’ve just about quit baking because everybody is either on a diet or diabetic... I love making stuff—ha ha—but we’re all older now and don’t need things like we did when we were younger. We’re mostly down to a family dinner out somewhere so we don’t have to cook and clean up and everybody brings one present and we draw numbers or something. Last year I made a basket of bird seed, feeders, dog treats, etc. We all have dogs and we all feed birds. It worked out great. :)

I did get my sil’s jammies done. She told me medium. I got the pattern out and said No way! I made a small and cut it down. She loves them!

Yes, handmade things are the best, whatever they are. I know the diet thing comes up all the time, that’s true. You have to know what each person would like or use. To get handmade jammies... lucky people!
