ReplyDeleteI made a friendship quilt for an online friend. Her husband is dying and it meant a lot to give her something to wrap up in, even though I can't be with her.
ReplyDeleteA bag I gave my mom last year because it was the first gift I ever made with fabric.

ReplyDeleteI think one that I gave that was really really liked was a cross stitch picture of a favorite bible verse in a pattern I had made up. She was really impressed :)
ReplyDeleteI made my daughters puppets last year - those may be my fabourite!

once i learned to knit socks to make them for my brother as a surprise - i measured his feet from a photograph and they actually fit very well.
ReplyDeleteThe best gift I ever gave was when my husband turned 30. I gave him a gift certificate for a tattoo of his choice. Seemed like the best way to celebrate a milestone birthday.
ReplyDeletei made my husband for one anniversary a book of pictures and adventures from our life up to that point. got a proposal after that... :)

ReplyDeleteWhat a generous giveaway. thank you for the chance to win! The best gift I ever gave was a father's day gift to my hubby. There were several bottles of wine that were all about him and being a dad. See my post to understand. http://pinkpetunias.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/08/fathers-day-gift-posting---better-late-than-never.html.html
ReplyDeleteA little mini quilt to my husband for our second (cotton) anniversary.
ReplyDeleteYou stole my heart when I saw your banner with the LSU quilt!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite gift was my wedding gift from my mother who made me a double-wedding ring (machine-pieced, hand-quilted) in purple and gold. On the corner where she signed the quilt it has a little LSU surround by two conjoined hearts since my husband and I met passing notes in class while attending LSU :)
My favorite gift to give is quilts. they are an everlasting warm hug!

ReplyDeleteI know it should be a handmade item, but the most special gift I ever gave was to my husband on our wedding day. There was a certain watch he'd wanted since he was a boy and he'd asked me for a fake one for a present. I bought him the real one (and very expensive it was too!). Seeing him wearing it later and him saying thank you was very emotional!
ReplyDeleteI am very new to quilting & made my mil a table topper I'm very proud of. hope she likes it as much as I do!
ReplyDeletesome wristwarmers I gave my grandmother the year she died. I found them when we were cleaning up her house - they were filthy and worn out, which was perfect :)

ReplyDeleteI am a follower
ReplyDeleteI'm making a cosmetic/travel set for my sister using Tufted Tweets--it's eye-popping fun & my favorite to make this year!!
ReplyDeletebaby quilts are definitely my favorite
ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift I ever gave was when I made my kids Waldorf Dolls for Christmas and told them I'd stuffed them with love. They still have and love their dolls!
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite so far was the quilt for my sister - she was visiting when I gave it to her, and was awesome to see her reaction. <3
ReplyDeleteMost favorite gift to my husband was the unexpected news that I was expecting. We were just coming to terms with how our life was at the moment.
ReplyDeleteA quilt I made for one of my sisters for her wedding gift was my favorite to give. I delivered it in person and no one except for my husband knew I was making the trip from Massachusetts to Florida with it. I showed up at her door with two suitcases, one for my stuff and one for the quilt, and not enough cash to pay the taxi driver! You can imagine their surprise and of course they wondered if there was something wrong! It was great fun and the best kept secret in the history of our family!

On my husband's last birthday I told him I was pregnant. He got a boy for his birthday!
ReplyDeleteHomemade gifts, definitely! I gave my mom a bag to keep her knitting supplies in.
ReplyDeleteI was pretty excited to gift a handknit sweater to my husband a few years ago! It was quite a feat!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift ever is the quilt I'm working on for my mom. Almost all of it is from my grandmothers stash and she had even started some of the blocks. She passed away 3 years ago and I know my mom will be happy to see the fabrics.

ReplyDeleteugh, my fave gift I ever gave, ugh, I have tons, I just love giving my friends gifts and seeing them freak out. I think maybe the matching aprons I made for my MIL and daughter. She thought my FIL had told me that's what she wanted for Mother's day, and he hadn't, so she was very excited to receive that.
ReplyDeleteMake life is super awesome!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift - a friend and I sent a third friend on a trip to Ireland. She cried when we gave her the tickets :)
I made my mom an apron last Christmas and she loved it.
ReplyDeleteOne year I gave my grandfather a beaded bowl that I made. I coated it in beeswax and laboriously placed individual seed beads into the wax in an intricate pattern. It took me months, and my grandpa loved it. And I loved him.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift I ever made was a pair of knitted socks. They took forever, but well worth it.
ReplyDeleteMy best present so far has been a play kitchen for my daughter. She loves it! This year is the first year since childhood that I made gifts. I hope my family members like them!
ReplyDeleteI made a complete, from scratch, replica of the "Grail Diary" from _Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade_ for the husband. He loved it!
ReplyDeleteFavorite gift was the year we had NO money, so we went to the dollar store and bought little dart guns for all my husband's brothers, brothers-in-law, and his dad. We had them open @ the same time. The tags said, "May the best man win!" We weren't there, but we heard there was an epic battle. This was years ago, and it's still one of the favorite Christmas stories.
ReplyDeleteI think maybe the pasta machine my husband gave me one year. That thing rocks.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift is what I gave my friendship group ladies this year - I had my sister cut from her Cricut machine each of their names and a little clip art piece of vinyl so they can customize their sewing machines.

Hi, Beck. I think my favorite gift to give was quilts to my Mom and sisters. They were nice and I worked on them most of the year. All were different and one was a lap size and the other two were wall hangings. I don't think I ever kept a holiday secret for 10 months before that. Lane
ReplyDeleteOh, and I am definitely already a follower. Take care. Lane

ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift was one I just gave my dad for his birthday: I made a quilted placemat out of pinwheels, scotch-guarded it and gave it to him with a bottle of wine and some wine accessories for his finished basement bar.
ReplyDeleteThe best gift I gave was to my husband... He is a John Deere fan and kept talking about this model tractor, going to the store to see if it was still there, telling me not to buy it cuz he doesn't really need it. Well, the look on his face when I gave it to him was priceless!

ReplyDeleteMy fave gift to give has to be my first big quilt, it's a quilt for my parents bed, they're still thrilled for it
ReplyDeleteBest gift I ever gave.. gosh that is hard. I would have to say that it was a camera for my dad. He had started to shake from Parkinsons (which we didn't know he had yet), and so his pitures from a cheapy camera weren't turning out anymore. I had joined the Navy, and so I had some money of my own for a change. I saved up and bought him "a real camera". His pictures were great for a while after that, and he was happy.. so were we.
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway!!
ReplyDeleteFav gift...my mum has arthritis and she had to have her wedding ring cut off (she's a widow), I had it repaired and put on a necklace so she could still wear it.

ReplyDeleteI think the bed quilt I made my brother for his birthday was my most favorite gift I ever made & gave. He was really touched and kept thanking me,for months afterwards, every time I spoke with him on the phone.
ReplyDeleteHi Becky! I guess I'd have to say that the most favorite gift I ever gave was the GO! cutter I won from a fellow blogger. I gave it to one of my blog followers that has lung cancer because I thought it would make quilting easier for her.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the great give away and the opportunity to win. (BTW, love your LSU quilt - I'm a Tiger Fan myself as I'm originally from Baton Rouge and will be spending this Christmas there!)
Merry Christmas to you and your family and all the best in the New Year!

My favorite gift(s) I've ever given were those from my late husband's estate sale. I was able to give away 2 cars (one to a very good friend who helped me with the estate sale and one to my ex-husband) and an electronic keyboard as a Secret Santa present for a local boy who had lost his mother to alcoholism (like my husband). Out of tragedy came something positive.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift I gave was a set of dishes I gave my mother for Christmas when I was about 11. I saw it in a flyer, and knew she would love them. It said 5 piece set, and - coincidentally - we had 5 people in our family. I saved up the $25, went to the store and... it was one place setting for $25. But my dad, in a surprising gesture of compassion, bought the other four.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite gift was a new saw for my husband. I had to have a couple guys help me haul it in. We were in the middle of a renovation and I got to hide it under bundles of insulation. He never imagined he would get it for Christmas.
