Maybe someone has already posted this, but since it's for your quilting friends, what about the quilt carriers w/ dowel rod handles? If anyone is like me, I never have time to make anything for myself, as I am always thinking if things to make for everyone else!! I think that would be great for retreats, guild meetings, etc.

I would love to have a quilted blanket made. its bigger than
a lap quilt.. a long coat zipper is added to the front and snaps are put on the upper part of the edges to make sleeves. it fits like a quilted house coat but can be unzipped and unsnaped to use as a blanket.
not sure what the name of this is but. Im cold all the time
and this would be wonderful gift to keep warm in.

They get done so much faster than baking without the bag. I have over cooked many. Also you need to wrap them in damp paper towels.
i have made some of these they are really easy. I have not had luck cooking a potatoe in it though. how do you get them to come out so good, i know some people rave about them, but I was a little dissapointed. I bought a lot of the tater batting so my GD could make some for a craft fair in Nov, but now I don't know about doing them.[/quote]
