My Mom is the hard one for us to buy for. She has everything. So last year we embroidered a dozen kitchen towels, made her 6 nice sz placemats in the hexigan shape & bought napkins to match. Oh & potholders and trivets to set her hot pans on. She loved this gift. This year she will get a few Runners with napkins to go with & some more seasonal placemats with hot pads to go with. She really enjoys changing her stuff around.
