    ReplyDelete
  47. I confess that I haven't started to shop yet. SIGH, I don't like to go to the malls. I find it so hot and crowed, yuck. Fortunately I only have a couple of presents to buy so I won't have a problem.
    I did get the tree up yesterday. It looks lovely.

  50. Unfortunately no, I am not done with my Christmas shopping. I'm not even sure what I'm getting a couple people yet. Thank you for the chance to win.

    ReplyDelete
  51. What's that, you ask? Do I have my Christmas shopping done? Oh my goodness - no! But, I am, in fact, headed out to get part of it done today. We live in a small rural community, so the nearest town to 'shop' in is about 70 miles away, so shopping is an all-day adventure. Your Santa mug mat sounds delightful, and I would put it to good use if my name were drawn. Merry Christmas to you!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I have one person done, but I know what I am getting everyone else I just have to pick it up!! I need Christmas fabric, thanks. Vivian

    ReplyDelete

  55. Hello from Minnesota! Our Christmas shopping is ALMOST all done. This is mostly thanks to our families scaling back the exchanges and fewer babies being born. :) It's great because we can relax and enjoy the season a lot more. Oh - and I just love Santa! And mugs...I even collect Santa mugs. :)

  84. I really don't have mug mat. Of course, I could make one myself, BUT, I really want to win one for me - just for me only. No, I am not done shopping yet. I have to make somes salsa and put into jars and want to shop for my husband one more time. The Christmas tree is up and fully decorated and the rest of the presents for my family are wrapped and under the tree. I almost forgot, I need to buy some treats for my cat. She loves Christms and really likes to sleep under the tree. Thank you for giving all of us, your followers, a chance to win your Santa themed mug mat. Just perfect now for the holidays. You need to take a break with a copy of hot chocolate or apple cider and use your mut mat. Merry Christmas.

    ReplyDelete
  97. The wife and I caved in this year and decided to give the kid's money so they can put it toward something they want - one wants a deep freeze and the other baby furniture. We still probably will get them small presents for under the tree and to open when we have Christmas. The beginning of December, we got ourselves a new davenport. And of course always picking up quilting fabric, books and notions.

    ReplyDelete
  98. All my Christmas shopping is done!

  100. Well, no, I'm not done shopping. I do at least know what I want to get for everyone, it's just the actual purchasing that isn't finished yet. Why does Christmas sneak up so quickly?? :)

    ReplyDelete
  101. Your Christmas projects are all gorgeous. My christmas shopping is not completed. And I think I am gonna run out fo time. Life has been so crazy lately. I still do not even know what I am getting for all the folks I need to shop for.Witha much smaller budget this year that is throwing a wrench into things as wel... Next year I am gonna be so much more prepared. Thank you for a chance to enter your giveaway. I just love christmas & seasonal fabrics they are gorgeous and I love any type of Christmas and seasonal projects. I think it is beacuse the fabrics seem so much livelyer and bright.
