dh & i both get tons of catalogs, so for years we marked what we wanted out of each one, exchanged catalogs btwn columbus day & halloween, set a price limit and ordered whatever... dh is a woodworker, so there was always some tool he wanted....
we've reached the point where neither of us really needs anything else, so this year, my car needs struts.. so i asked dh to get them & he & ds will install them... save me about 1400.00....and how much fabric can i get for that!!

Neither could come Christmas Day as no one wanted to be around negativity or be reminded of why the other wasn't there. DH backed me up with no exceptions to our rule. By Christmas Day they had made up and acted nicer then when they were at odds.

I don't want anything that can be wrapped. What I really want is someone to get my treadle Singer working so I can get some exercise. :wink:

I'm happy to get gift cards to local quilt shops, Joanns or even my favorite online fabric / quilt websites.
Its hard to anyone else to get me fabrics, supplies, tools etc cuz they don't know what I need or want.
Always happy to get more fabric and quilting stuff, more so than socks, cookies, kitchen gadgets etc. Even tho I am a chocoholic I don't want it anymore, I'm cutting way back on sugar and my craving is going away.
