My quilty friend and I share the same birthday and do lunch every year; often times giving quilty gifts to each other. Pattern books, Gingher scissors, even fat quarters or charm packs with a small pattern like Schnibbles or those from This & That. We just love it all!! There is a very nice desk top needle threader out there by Clover and some needles to go withit and a few fat quarters too. The possibilities are endless. Most would be grateful with whatever. Machingers quilting gloves and a bottle of Best Press.....I could go on and on because most quilters just love fabrics and notions.
Oh, don't forget a year's subscription to one of the great quilting magazines out there!!
