I like the idea, too, but it might be better off if it were left
"themeless." Not all of us celebrate the holidays in the same way (or for
the same reasons), or even do the same kind of sewing.
Certainly there are many religious holidays in December, and different ways
of celebrating them. Some people connect their favorite December religious
holiday with the American commercial tradition of December gift giving, and
others don't. I happen to like giving/receiving gifts, and December is
when all my other friends do it, so that's the month I pick. But whatever
the month, the gifts I give are usually handmade or of a historical nature,
because I hand-make historical stuff anyway and because most of my
recipient-friends are into historical costuming.
