I understand. I sewed patchwork tablecloths for my mom and sister. My mom knows about my sister's but hers will be a complete surprise. Those will get good reception I think. Then I made baby doll blankets for my nieces, one bigger and one really small for their 6 in. American Girl dolls their great-grandma gave them. I always get anxious with gifts like that because kids are unpredictable and it's hard to put in a lot of time doing something and have them reject it and never touch it again (ie the sparkly hot pink superhero cape I spent many hours making without a pattern or instructions 2 years ago and which has never been worn for play yet b/c the recipient felt it choked her (which was possible with the design I guess).

But it will all be good. I'm just anxious to have them open things and hopefully not immediately notice my errors, especially on the tablecloths.

I also am really hoping I'm not too tired to handle this. I was up until about 3 when in desperation I bit a 10 mg hydroxyzine (they are teeny and wouldn't cut well in the splitter) in half (tastes terrible) and then I got up at 7:15 and once I did the breathing treatment I needed then I was awake for the day. I have a bad headache (I think my sinuses are getting involved in my bronchitis) so hopefully getting up wasn't a bad mistake. I guess at worst I nap at my sister's for a while.

I also have to explain to my nieces that there was one gift they knew I planned to make but I ran out of time and with my rapidly upcoming med change/hospitalization it will be a while before I get them done probably.

Oh well.

Enjoy your day!
