Good suggestions everyone, thanks.
Well, she is a widow, & doesn't really cook anymore. She has several quilts of different sizes I have made. I made her some dish towels but says they are too pretty to mess up.
I don't know about the hankies, and doesn't have any animals.
She does go to the gym and is in the pool a lot there, so maybe an embroidered gym towel???
I also thought of pillows for her couch.
