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!

How about a wall quilt with pockets for photos. Saw this one on Amazon....

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

One of the film quilts with pics of him growing up would be just lovely and priceless!

Just made this mug rug for my friend. She bought the fabric at Hobby Lobby. On the selvage edge, it is printed exclusively for Hobby Lobby

ManiacQuilter2 I have got to find that fabric. lol. That is so pretty, and perfect. It looks just like a sketch. I think we have a hobby lobby in knoxville, Tn.
