«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 590 of 590 Newer› Newest»I'm a new mom so what I'd most like would be a few hours to myself. Yep, I know, I might get my wish in 18 years or so!!...
Following on google reader...
For Christmas I'd like to get everything done so that I can relax and enjoy the day.
fabric of course!
My wishlist: a Bosch Kitchen Machine and a fabric subscription
For your step-dad: lether motorcycle bags (made by you) or utensils bags for his technology thingies (also made by you), have a look round his workshop while he's busy, so you see what he uses and needs.
Gift idea for your step dad I'm suggesting a personalized cellphone/Ipad/Laptop sleeve with his initials appliquéd on it maybe? With a matching little zipper case for his headphones (they're always forgotten otherwise) with a clip so they can be easily clipped together. Something more manly then my version for myself but to give you an idea what I mean: http://www.notonlyquilts.com/2012/07/cellphone-earphone-cases.html
It's useful but also nice and home made?
Thanks a lot for the chance to win! =D
What a gorgeous stack of fabrics! I'd love...well, a little more fabric for Christmas, of course! :)
A Hero Go cam would be a cool gift. It could hook on his motorcycle then he can upload video onto the computer. Thanks for the great giveaway.
Fabric is always on my wish list! thanks for the chance!
great giveaway! i can't help you with gift ideas (sorry!) but at the top of my wish list to get our home buying process speeded up - i'm so ready to be in a home of our own! :)!

I want some Out to Sea fabric!
For someone who likes technology--maybe an ereader cover or an iPad cover?
Shortbread cookies. For reals.
I'm stalking I MEAN FOLLOWING YOU
I have everything I need, so I don't have much of a wish list. Something handmade by my hubby would make me very happy.
I'm a follower
My holiday wishlist has a couple of cookbooks on it and some q-snap embroidery frames. That's about it though!
I am hoping for a walking foot for my machine. Maybe search for motorcycle on etsy for some good ideas? I found my father-in-law a John Deere puzzle that way. Good luck!
I am a new follower on Google Reader.
On my holiday list is an extension table for my sewing machine.
I don't want much, but my dream gift would be all the colors in the Kona Cotton collection. Good luck with your stepdad's gift.
For your stepdad: maybe a magazine about motorcycles or cars? For myself I'd love to recieve a subscription on a quilting magazine!
Hello from Minnesota! It depends on his sense of humor but I ride a motorcycle (a clutchless-shift scooter really) and I love helmet ears, kickstand kritters, and tons of the items under the "Sundry" tab at aerostitch.com
How about chocolate?! winterwrens at gmail dot com
I want a good night sleep. Been sewing like mad trying to finish all that I am behind on.
I am a follower.
What about making him a iPad (or whatever he uses) case with motorcycle fabric?
I'm a new follower.
I love to receive some quiltbooks. My man is also a motorman. I bought some very cute fabric, with lovely ladies on motorcycles, very vintage pictures. I made him a scarf with this fabric, lined it with black.
I'm a new follower.
Santa is bringing me a new sewing machine. Ho Ho Ho! Thanks for a great giveaway~!
Good smelling soap, I know wired, but my mother-in-law has this soap that makes her whole kitchen smell good when someone washers their hands and I love it! eatkin85(at)yahoo(dot)com
I don't really have much of a wishlist beyond "gift card to fabric store". :)
I'm a follower!
a kindle maybe. Thanks for the giveaway!
Thick socks. No jokes. My dad is a biker and he says that that is the best thing since slice bread. Or a bag for bits and pieces that is quite compact? A backbrace is also a good idea.
Good luck!
I would love a new digital camera this year.
I stalk you.
I'd like a floor-standing ott light. Winters here are so grey, and my eyes aren't what they once were. Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity.
If he has a Kindle you might make him a cover with some motorcycle fabric and tuck an Amazon gift card inside.
I would love a new computer desk!
EQ7 software. Thanks for the opportunity on the draw and Merry Christmas to you

I would like to get a die cutting machine for Christmas! audiodropzone(at)gmail(dot)com

Some people are hard to shop for. Maybe nice motorcycle gloves or a gift certificate to the local motorcycle store. Or goggles.
Gift cards to my favorite quilt shops is always my wish list. For everything! :) I asked my husband and my son your gift question and this is what I got: http://uncrate.com/stuff/casio-g-shock-bluetooth-watch/
This sounds good to me!
Thanks for a great giveaway. Merry Christmas :)

Speakers for my laptop.

I'm hoping for a new sewing machine. I have a crappy little kenmore I bought at Sears for $80 10 years ago. Hoping to upgrade it a bit!
If nothing else, a gift card to Amazon or Best Buy. My husband loves gift cards to Home Depot. Thanks.
I would love to sleep in in the mornings for a few days!

Hi Julie - I just opened an online only fabric store called Fabric Spot (www.myfabricspot.com) based in Ontario, Canada. I was hoping to stock your Mod Pop quilt pattern. Do you sell it wholesale? Please contact me at karen@myfabricspot.com.
Thanks!!!
P.S. Love this blog!
I would love a new kitchen table.
I am so bad at getting people presents. XD Maybe one of those cool motorcycle statues made of wire and misc motorcycle parts?
Thanks for the giveaway!
Fabric and quilting books.
I gave my fil a bunch of different types of unpopped popcorn. It was fun to try the different types, they all tasted.
Hmmm, I'd like a rocking chair and a replacement for my injured quilter's square and rotary cutting mat.
I don't really have anything on my wishlist. I did ask my hubby to rig/build me some sort of table I can use when trying to free motion quilt a larger piece. I explained what I needed it for so I'll see what he comes up with???
Thanks for the chance to win.

For the present: Does he have a kindle, or an iPad. Why not make him a cover, protector etc from motorcycle fabric? I am sure he would appreciate it, if he already has one, how about a glasses case or a gear bag for his motorcycle tools.
I really want a craft of the month subscription! And an idea for your step dad can be found at the Apple store!
I'm hoping for a new iron.
Plenty of books on my list this year :)
Thanks for chance to win. Time to sew.
Oh, oh! I was running into the same problem with my dad but then we saw this commercial about the Kobalt Multi-Drive Wrench. He thought it was cool and I thought perfect present! It's different because it adjusts itself without having to lock/unlock or screw/tighten it.
I'm also a FB follower

I would just get some Harley gear and call it done.
I would give a thermos flask in a knit/quilted cosy maybe with a motocycle-related print! So that when he's in the garage he's warm and trendy!

I'm hoping for A sizzix Big Shot and some dies. Not sure what to suggest for your step-dad - I always have problems thinking of stuff for my dad too!
I would love gift cards to fabric stores. Then, I can shop guilt free!
I am a new follower.
I would like new sneakers because mine are worn out and my feet hurt! A new 16 or 20 quart pot would be good, too, since mine keeps burning things.... OK, maybe it is my fault, too. :)
Thanks for the giveaway!
i am hoping for some sock yarn!
I'm hoping for a knitting kit from KnitPicks this year!
I have fabric and books on my list list. No idea for your stepfather, I'm stumped for my dad, brother and husband!
I'm asking for fabric for Christmas :)

How 'bout a subscription to Make magazine? That may give him inspiration for technology related projects.
jitterbug1(at)gmail(dot)com
hmm how about some polishing towels (or whatever they use to polish their bikes). A gas voucher (yeah I know vouchers are not very inovative). I guess he's too old for a safety training weekend, or a first aid course (those cycling accidents really look bad in the news) ...
That's that - I want a a mixer .. I have neough of hand kneading my dough ...
After a very tough year my wishlist is simple - I just want to spend some quality time with my 2 year daughter before bub number 2 arrives in early Jan
I would love a new sewing machine.

My go-to gift for my father are Bill Bryson books. Good luck present hunting! Men in that age group can be so hard to buy for... :-/
Money towards my holiday in Latvia in Feb :)
kerry(AT)penny-dog.co.uk
The go-to gift for someone like that would be a NASA antigravity pen - writes upside down as well as right side up.
I'd love a new to me sewing machine.

You could go silly and get a remote control motorcycle, but if nobody has linked to this, it has some good ideas http://www.ridermagazine.com/gear/high-tech-motorcycle-gadget-buyers-guide.htm
Thank you for the giveaway!
I really just want some time to myself.
My step-dad like wine and my dad likes rum. I usually get them something related to those things. Maybe for a motorcycle guy, some cools stickers to go on his helmet, motorcycle accessories (tassels for the handle bars would be hilarious!), leather riding gloves.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to get a tablet PC)
I need some new pyjamas so hope someone gets the hints I've been dropping
I would love a fabric gift card this year.
Top of my list is Kate Davies' new knitting book, Colours of Shetland. For a man, when in doubt, I knit socks.

I don't really have a wish list unless you know how to create more time. Thanks for participating in the Giveaway Day.
I'm a happy follower.
I don't really have a list though of course fabric and anything vintage would be lovely. A gift for your father in law. What about a messenger bag for him to use while he is motorcycling or ipad, tablet protector for him. Cases for any technology is always good.
I would like to get photoshop or Lightroom so I can improve my photos a little bit more. The photography is getting better, but I could use the editing software to give my pics that extra oomph!
I'm a new follower!
I just want some time to finish my quilting projects! That's my favorite time of Christmas -- my folks watch the kids and I quilt.

Fabric is on my wishlist this year!
I don't have any big wishes - maybe a fabric store gift card! Good luck with your gift exchange.
I don't have a ton on my wish list, but I desperately need a new iron - I dropped mine and now it leaks! Please Santa, all I want for Christmas is an iron - sounds pretty lame, but true!
A treadmill for me!
I would like to move across country but that is a big wish!
I would love a new camera bag like an Epiphanie or Jo Totes bag.
an ipad
The only thing on my wish list is some free time (I have a 15 month old)

How about a sleeve for his iPad or Kindle?
I'm hoping for a Kindle Fire. My 11 year niece has one and I love it.
It is always fabric! Maybe more space feeling a little crowded in the kitchen. But that is life and I will be grateful for all I have. Thanks
If he has a harley motorcycle find a dealer online or where you are they have lots of stuff. Usually my go to is a few new t-shirts.
I have not even made a list this year. everyone has to guess this year :P
I need a bigger cutting mat !
It sounds like you drew my step dad! (Except he's 54. ;) ) I did a LOTR book gift set one year. Sorry, that may not help you... On my wish list is a plane ticket to go visit my pregnant sister, and I'm getting it! So excited!!!
Thank you for the giveaway!
How about some gadget cases, some practical bike accessories like a new cover, polish, my husband used to bike and one year I bought a snood like thing that you wear under your helmet and keeps back of your neck warm whilst riding, I bought at a craft fair and have no idea what it is called so hope that is enough info.
Thanks for the giveaway! I was wanting a new sewing machine and guess what UPS brought me today? I hope that I fall in love. wonderlandbyalyce(at)gmail(dot)com
If he has a Kindle or an iPad, maybe you could make him a padded case?
Leather wallet for him?
I want a big table that I can cut fabrics~!
My biggest wish is for a homemade quilt from my mom!!
I am hoping to get a sewing table that my machine sits down in. Good luck shopping for a man! Hardest thing ever!!!
I just signed up to follow with email! Your blog is great!
A hair cut! Looking a bit scraggly at the moment... lol
On my wish list was a new recliner - and we got it last night! So excited. Thanks for the giveaway!
Fabric is always on my wishlist!
The book Sunday Morning Quilts is on my wish list (and, of course, fabric). This fabric is particularly beautiful!
I'd love a MASSAGE for Christmas!
Yikes, good luck with your stepdad's gift!
I am asking for fabric, of course. I hope I get some this year! :)
I'm a follower from way back :)
On my wish list is a Cricuit cutter! Thanks for the giveaway! Amy @ gasudimack(at)sbcglobal(dot)net
I am wishing for some new drawing pencils. I think for the man gift - I made a fabric "wallet" for my husband and boys cars last year to hold all their ins and registration info! they loved them. Does he text? texing Northface gloves are fabulous! happy holidays!
I'm giving my sister and brother-in-law (my draw names) mug rugs. I mean what do you give to older people who make enough money to buy what they need?
Silhouette Cameo! Although I'm going to have to buy it myself if I'm ever going to get it.
I always want new sewing books for inspiration.
My husband is getting either a new food processor or a meat slicer (he wants both) - but he loves to cook and makes a lot of our food (like bacon). If your step dad already has some technology items, could you make him carriers/protectors in manly colors? Thanks for the chance to win!
What about a iPad/Kobo/whatever case made from some funky motorcycle fabric? Thanks for the giveaway!
In my experience, men like things they can eat. Perhaps something manly like an exotic kind of meat jerky?
I would love an actual sewing desk with drawers and a drop down for my machine.
Really cool idea for your gift: a pack of Sugru!
How about a digital meat thermometer? Does he cook?
A nice external hard drive? What's your budget?
My holiday wish list? mmm maybe a housekeeper? hahaha
GFC following
How about a book that has something to do with motorbikes? Or, better yet, a giftcard to his regular autoshop/mechanic. They may not do them usually but you could probably organise one sneakily! Unless it can't be a giftcard. Then I dunno :)
And I'm a new follower!
A fancy new camera. : )
My wish list is short: pinking shears...
as for your step-dad, does he have an e-reader, ipad, etc? If so, you could make him a cover that has a motorcycle on it? Or maybe Harley Davidson makes one? That would combine both things...technology and motorcycling... GOOD LUCK!
Ooh, neat fabrics! My wishlist is full of crafty things this year, I hope I get some fabric, actually!
I think a nice pair of cranberry Doc Martens are on my list. As I've told absolutely no one about this, it's highly unlikely that they'll find their way under my tree, though :P . As for motorcycle man? Um...a gift card? That's my go-to when guys stump me for gifts (personally, I love getting gift cards). Thanks so much for the chance at your giveaway!
I'm also stalking...er, I mean...following you on facebook :) Thanks again!
Organizational stuffs and furniture is on my wish list. Thanks for the giveaway!
Love the red deer fabric especially! I'm wishing for a new sewing machine; mine is making death noises. Thanks for the fun give-away!
Oh my gosh- good luck! I think guys are so hard to shop for. My dad and brother just go out and get what they want, so it's hard to know what to get them.
Chaps? Kidding! I'm making food gifts for all the men on my list this year...
Hmmm, my wish list this year has on it a robe, marmalade fabric, and a new pair of Uggs. My birthday is in January, so if I don't get those things, there's always a second chance! ;) Thanks, and good luck with your father-in-law's gift!
my holiday list is topped by a new watch!
My holiday wish list is full of quilting books and sewing supplies! Cheers, Diana (Toronto Canada).
On my wish list is a kindle fire.
