Thanks
For my DH's 75th birthday, I made an autograph quilt. All of the kids and grandkids, brothers and sisters and in-laws on both sides signed blocks I had sent in the mail. He loved it, as it is such a keep sake.
For his 80th Birthday, I made a Civil War Quilt. I had the center for pictures, and quotes from A. Lincoln and pictures of the main battlefields. He loved that also.
I say go with what he likes the most in reading books, ect, ect. My DH happens to love Civil War and all that goes with it!
