Really pretty - I sure hope she doesn't use it for it's original purpose! How about a tea cozy? Or a set of placemats and napkins?

How about an old fashioned fan showcasing some of that beautiful embroidery?

Impressive.

Coasters? A decorative picture frame cozy? A cozy of any kind?

I love the fly swatter. I am at a loss what to give her. That's hard to top.
