Have thought of the aprons for my 2 DIL's, maybe also pretty potholders/dishtowels, also like the cookie cutter and recipe idea. My aunt gave me a little dress that you tie onto the dish soap bottle, it had a pocket, and a little saying about holding your rings while you do the dishes, really cute, but nowadays they all use dishwashers. I hate dishwashers, rather have another cabinet in its place!

Linnie, we are making Christmas tree ornaments out of felt, your choice of colors, Using a cookie cutter for a pattern. making a front and back with a little stuffing inside and decorative stitch around the out side. decorating them. putting a gold cord to hang by. This will be something they can unwrap. we are also making each one a card to go with it.

I made 2 of my DGD's quilts, but that's as far as I've gotten.

I usually make free standing lace on the emb machine. this year, reindeer again and sailboats (new).
