Due to recalls of plenty of reuseable bags for groceries etc, I am using fabric to make those bags. Makes a nice gift that can be used and washed and no worry about lead in them. Expensive yes, but check out your stash and it is money already spent.
You make it with love and as said earlier always better quality. Another gift we are giving this year is homemade jelly with fancy fabric under the ring. Makes nice gift for home bound and for those who you just want to remember. They eat the food and remember you.
