What an awesome giveaway! Imagine what fun one could have with a JAF gift card like that…..drool….As far as my favorite handmade gift, I’d probably have to go with the quilt my grandmother made when I graduated from college. It is awesome.
My favorite handmade gift was a lovely tied quilt my great-grandmother made for me.
My favorite handmade gifts were things we received at our baby shower: crocheted receiving blankets that were large enough that we are still using them with our now 2-year old, an afghan, a ring sling, and embroidered burp cloths.
What an awesome kitchen gift set. Great idea for holiday giving!!
Anything my kids make! But the one from when I was younger (a teen) was this fuzzy yellow sweater my grandma made me. It was so comfy, not trendy, but I didn’t care & wore it & wore it. I still have it somewhere.
Love all the gift tutorials! So many talented people out there!
There have been a ton of handmade gifts that I’ve loved. The best would have to be from my mom, who has knitted, crocheted and sewed for all of us since we were young. Some of the standouts are her 3 dimensional teddy bear granny square crocheted blanket I received at the baby shower for my oldest, halloween costumes she made us when we were kids, using no patterns(monarch butterfly, tweety bird, sylvester the cat, and 2 of the seven dwarves, and the flower girl dresses she made me and my sister.
I have a wreath that a very dear friend made for me, it’s so beautiful.
Mine was from my Grandmother. Sadly, she did not ‘give’ it to me as she died before the time came. She had sewn me a baby quilt for the little girl I was pregnant with at the time. She hand stitched the entire quilt but then I lost that baby at 5 1/2 months into the pregnancy. Then my next pregnancy a year later came, however she died before learning about this. (This was a boy) But, while clearing out all of her things after she died, my Mom found the box with the quilt. The box had my name on it and a hand written note inside for me so this gift came too late but was not appreciated any less than any gift I have ever received. It brought tears to my eyes at how excited she was to have her very first great grandchild and then died before I carried one to full term a year later.
My favorite handmade gifts are quilts that were made for me by my grandma and friends when I got married. There is something so cozy about snuggling up in a blanket made by someone you love.
My favorite is my quilt my mom made me as a child. I used it until it fell apart 15 years ago. I sure miss that blanket….
Oh, last Christmas my Mom gave me a gorgeous embroidered snowman wall hanging. Its absolutely beautiful! The amount of work she did, embroidering it – its really big! And she is amazing at embroidery. Moms are the best!

Ma grandmother used to make us socks for Christmas. My grandparents had 20 grandkids and not enough money to buy gifts for every one so she would knit those all year long and gave them to us on Christmas day. They were all grey with two stripes, either red, yellow or blue at the top. I wish I still had a pair!
Crossing my fingers hard I win this package, it would really be a god sent to me, honestly! I am on a fixed income & trying to get my lil home biz running again, money is tight and this would really help me out.
