[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haven't seen much mention of handmade gifts, other than food. What about a tote bag sewn by the student (with parental help)? DS has expressed a lot of interest in sewing recently (probably because he sees me make a lot) and I think he'd have fun with this. (1st grade.)[/quote] Do you see how this gift is more about you, your pride in your son etc than about the recipient?[/quote] Yes this is the worst when people do this. I have a relative who loves to quilt. She gives quilts to everyone. She's very proud of them and works very hard on them, but most people like to pick their own bedding. It's a gift she likes to do not something for the recipient. Same with donations to charities that you like in someone else's name unless you know they also support the charity. [/quote]
