Someone gave me a sort of heating pad, the size of a small pillow. It's filled with rice, and I warm it in the microwave. I just love it on a cold winter day. Use it all the time.

I have saved a few tutorials for casserole carriers & would love to receive one- but it would probably be for myself! I have a store bought one that I do use all of the time.

I like to receive hand made seasonal decorations. Pillow, wall hangings, runners, place mats, dish towels. I really enjoy decorating for the holidays and these gifts are always appreciated

I agree, I've made quite a few of them for gifts in pretty fabrics.
