Best Handmade gift ever received would be a polar fleece blanket with horses on it. It wasn't the design or complexity that made it the best, it was that it was from the kids that I'd babysat for a few years who made it for my graduation.

My mom made me a set of napkins that we use every day - 2 each of 4 different patterns, so now each of us has our "own" napkin that we just reuse until it's dirty, with a back-up set for wash day. Of course, now we're a family of 5, so for this year I've asked my mom for some more so that the youngest (currently too young for her own napkin) will have her own print.

My most favorite handmade gift is a Granny square blanket my grandmother crocheted for me. It has been through a lot, moved cross country 4 times (VA to CA twice and back twice), and I love it dearly. She passed away the day before Christmas last year. I have it sitting in my chair and I curl up with it every time I get cold! :)

From my 14 year old daughter...
Envelopes with special messages in them for single moments when I'm feeling sad, depressed, fat, anxious, worried, etc. I can't look in the envelopes until I need a pick-me-up from the mood I'm in at that moment. So amazing! I cried such happy tears when I opened the gift...so much so, that I couldn't even read them out loud. :)
