We di a blind gift exchange on my side. I plan to make seasonal table runnersMaybe one season on each side. It's faster then a full blown quilt, less expessive and can be enjoyed with more variety. I plan to add some candle sticks made from scrap wood as well- not cheap but creative- we in a world of buy everything bigger and better have stopped giving with the heart- make gifts with your heart and talents- they don't have to be grand either. Another gift we have given i the past is cloth bags with a plastic bag inside filled with the dry ingrediance for a recipe- Don't have time for that. Hit the Dollar sote or other and get items like mints and pretels etc and make up a gift basket
