Why work on something that is going to be received in such a manner it will hurt your feelings and ruin your pleasure in the giving. If she is, as DH says, critical of everything you do, you need to pull up your big girl panties and just say NO. No one can take advantage of you without your permission.
I am inclined to agree with gaigai, let her pick out the material she likes. Give her the yardage of three choices and have her pick it out and mail to you. Then you will have some idea of what you are working with. It is hard to know what someone really likes unless you are around them in the present. I am sure she will love what you make from it. Good luck .
