A couple of years ago I made aprons for my Christmas cookie baking friends and used up quite a bit of fabric. I think I had 1/2 yd cuts, not enough for a quilt, but just enough for some cute aprons. That's me on the right.

How about a Christmas Scrap Quilt for your bed. won't use all your scraps probably, but would use up alot. I made one when my children were still at home, and the only time it came out, was from thanksgiving to News Years Day. It became part of our Christmas Tradition, they loved curling up with it to watch all their christmas shows. I still have that quilt, very worn from all the love, but still gets displayed during the Holidays!

The first response pretty well said it all. The round napkins that can be folded into a Christmas tree are really cute. But you can also just make square napkins that can be folded normally.
The 10 minute table runner and the one that starts with a square of focus fabric and has french braids added are easy to make.

I plan on making some D9P throws for my local hospital. Also some smaller quilts for the Pediatric dept. My fastest quilt is made with 25 8 1/2 in. squares creating a 40 inch throw just right for wheel chairs and hospital beds !

For those smaller pieces I love to do hot pads and especially those little handle only ones for my cast iron pans. Can never have enough of those and everybody asks for those. I think this year I might make some little square ones with a loop right in the center for using on lids only. Have fun sounds like you have lots of ideas.
