Default Housewarming gift or gifts

My neighbors recently moved into the house they were building. The mother has her own house on one end separated by the garage. The daughter has hers on the other end. So, my question is - when they have their housewarming, do I give 1 or 2 gifts? I want to make a throw quilt, but should I make 1 or 2? I like both of them and miss them, but I don't want to slight either one or go overboard.

I think you should make two gifts. I'm sure each person considers their own house as separate from the other's. If you just make one, whose house would it go in?

Something I think that would be fairly quick and nice are two of the fabric boxes, the tutorial is on here. I made one out of a 16 inch block, I made the sides fairly long so that it would be taller, it now sits on my buffet with napkins in it. Had lots of comments on it, such as...can you make me one?

I'd make two gifts. Depending on how much 'stuff' they have, I might do mug rugs or placemats.

the older I get the less I seem to be in want.
