If we go out of town, we hit a casino and can eat the buffet, but if I have the gift cards, I'm not limited to one store. I can buy scissors and fabric or anything...maybe an Aquiquilt (I'm dreaming big). So, any suggestions? My husband always makes a big deal over Mother's Day and my birthday and with them right next to each other...SCORE!!!

    Since you've got such a sweet hubby, I'd vote for going out of town, let him enjoy the "gift" too.
    but gift cards are always a treat.

    Or do you want any more feet for your machine. I've been experimenting w/ couching and find it's a neat way to add texture to a project. Some feet will let you send sequins, beads, thick threads or yarn thru. Just a thought. Personally, I think I'd want a prepaid credit card, then I could either spend it online or at a store I visited in person. Happy Birthday, by the way!

    If finances allow, I would get the accu quilt go. I love it. I purchase the dies when I can get them on sale. The accuracy in cutting is wonderful.

    Go with the gift cards. Then you can get what you want. And he might take you to your favorite LQS too. Think big! lol
