Need Suggestions - Gift for My Son
Hello All,
I just thought this would be the best place to come for ideas I need. My son is in his 40's, and besides his regular job he does professional photography. He and his wife can pretty much buy whatever they want or need. I want to make him something special. Something just for him, and his interest in photography. I am thinking a special wall hanging or something on that line that is like a compliment to him from his mom.(ME) lol...He is one that likes knowing the thought behind the gift. He treasures things like that. Any thoughts at all I would appreciate, or even if you know of where I can buy some fabric that would be great for this.
Thanks Everyone
Merry Christmas!

I can't find a link to the pattern but there are some wonderful quilts that look like strips of film, with photos in them
