My favourite handmade mother’s day gift was a calendar my husband made with my kids hand and feet prints as the pictures for each month- he made butterflies and ghosts and trees and crabs. It was the most thought full thing and a great keepsake.

Sandie Oravec says
My sister and I worked together to make our mom a family quilt. Each square had the name of a family member embroidered in it. My sister embroidered all of the names and I made the quilt. She color coordinated the names so that you could see which family each person belonged to. There are six kids in our family, so this was really helpful. We left open squares so that new family members could be added as the family grew. It was a queen sized quilt, because our mom wanted it to be on her bed
Lisa says
I made my mom a bracelet one year…which unfortunately broke!
Amber says
I would love a letter from my kids, telling me something about good memories growing up. 🙂 I have a friend who always asks for that from her kids, and it is a wonderful idea, so I stole it!

This year I gave a purse that I made myself. It is my first one, so it didn’t look as great as I’d hoped. I’d love to receive a cleaning lady and a babysitter for a day! What a dream…

My mom is in a wheelchair and I am always making anything for her that simplifies her daily struggles. I have made her bed rail pouches, power chair pouches and even made her a drink holder, but that didn’t hold up too well. Just having my mom on this Mother’s Day is my gift!

I have one Mother’s Day gift in mind for a daughter-in-law who has a great camera and takes the most beautiful portraits of my grandson which I then do some nice things with in PhotoShop and frame them. It is a large camera bag for her DSLR, and I’m so excited about making it! Special people should get special things! I have a brand new daughter-in-law whom I have not decided on a gift for yet, but I will have to ask my son what I can make for her. I just sent their wedding gift that I had made.

Thanks for all your great bags.

The best Mother’s Day gift I ever received was from my goddaughter and she told me that she considered me her mother and that was so unexpected. It touched me so deeply because I never really knew how much she appreciated all the times that we spent together.

Great Giveaway! My mother is gone now but one of my favorite gifts that I made for her was a sewing machine cover with an applique of a sewing machine on it. This was wayyyyy back in the day and I didn’t really sew much or applique much at all. But you know, for your mom you’d do anything. 😀
Kristin H says
It’s a lot harder now that I live a state away from my mom, but I love making food to send to her. This year I had to cheat a little and sent her tea instead. She still enjoyed it!

Hi Lisa, My mom passed away of breast cancer. So I can’t not sew for her. I now sew for my adult daughter whom reminds me of my mother all the time. My mom pasted away on my daughters 17th birthday. I have planted all pink flowering bushes on one side of my yard and lavender on the other side as that is my daughters favorite. This hardware would be awesome to keeping the skill my mom taught me to make thinks for my daughter.

Lia says
The best gift I ever gave my mother, I think, was a handprint that I made in kindergarten when I was about four or five years old. It was in white clay and painted red around. I remember that I loved to place my hand in it again as I grew up. We’ve had it on our wall until a couple years ago, but I think it actually broke during renovation works. But I remember it fondly 🙂
Thanks for the trip down memory lane and the chance to win this generous package!
Magda R. says
I gave my Mum handmade cards when I was very small, later I went for experiences rather than things – as in taking over some of her chores. I don’t have children, but if I had and they volunteered to take over housework for a day I would be veeeery happy 🙂

i like to give bags that I have made. They seem to always be well received. I love it when my hubby makes items that I need for me. He made me a drawer insert bobbin holder, a craft table, a cutting table with storage. Those are by far my favourite things.
Thanks for the lovely give away.

When I was in high school, my sister and I saved up and had a pen & ink sketch done of the two of us. Mom still had it on her wall
Betsy C. says
Sadly, my mother died when I was 16, November 9, 1967; she has always been my inspiration and my love for sewing. I give or donate a lot of my sewing, my tote bags I personalize and give to cancer patients. I was unable to help my mother thru her cancer (I was not told she was dying) so for the past 15 years I’ve designed hats and bags for cancer patients that I know or friends tell me about. I would love to be the lucky recipient of purse hardware.
Anita says
A handmade tote is always appreciated.

One of my favorite gifts I made was for my MIL which was a photo quilt. She loved it and still uses it 🙂 I love my mother when I was 10 so didn’t get to do a lot of Mothers Day gifts unfortunately. Mom taught me when I was 7 and wanted me to continue if it was my dream, hence the name of my now sewing business Dreamscape Studio. I also taught my daughter to sew (now 15) and she helps me on occasion. Thank you for the awesome giveaway 🙂 Love your patterns

My mom made a dress for me to wear in my sister’s wedding…I don’t know how she found the strength to do it because she was suffering from heart disease and had been hospitalized just weeks before the wedding, but she was able to finish it in time doing the hemming by hand the night before the wedding.
She passed away three weeks later… I still have the dress…it may have been Mother’s day but I was the one who received the greatest gift.
wendy says
I’m not a mother so I’ve never received a mother’s day gift. I usually make something for my mum for mother’s day (though ours is in March). In the past I’ve made her a sewing machine cover, embroidered pouches, glasses cases and a patchwork pig.
Deb says
I love to make gifts for my mom, she is after all the person who taught me to sew, and use her sewing machine when I was 8 yrs old! What a thrill that was for me (45 yrs ago). I still thank her today for teaching me to sew. Zip pouches and a tote bag are on my cutting table at this time.

Robyn says
My daughter is only 20 months old, so we have only had one mother’s day together so far and I don’t think she is quite up to making gifts just yet. At least, nothing that doesn’t involve just a scribbled crayon blob. Maybe my hubby will surprise me with some plaster hand prints or something like that.

I am a sucker for the handmade paper flowers that my daughter makes me from time to time. I am so sentimental I cut them out and stick them in vases. 🙂
Brenda says
After my mom died, my dad gave me her jewelry/important stuff box. In it I found a card I’d made in early grade school with a handwritten Mother’s Day poem and a list of things I promised to do, like “read to the kids twice a week.” She saved it all those years, and I have no memory of the other gifts I gave her for Mother’s Day. I’m not a mom, so I can’t speak to what would mean the most to me, but I’d guess something like this, definitely handmade, and from the heart.

oh my, my kiddos have made me many wonderful things over the years for mothers day. and I have loved them all dearly. but the best of all is when on mothers day we would go out as a family and pick plants and flowers for around the house and garden. the kids loved it as much as I did, for we let them help pick out plants, figure the best place to put them and them plant them in the ground. and then I had them help me water them so they could see them grow and feel the accomplishment of caring for these wonderful plants.
Yana says

Not quite home-made, but last year I sent my Mom who is gluten-free a bouquet of “flours” (gluten free flours). She thought it was great!

Growing up we never really got into mothers day. I can’t imagine my husband helping our kids make me any home made gifts either!! Not really home-made, but what I would love to get is some yardage from Miss Matatabi’s shop!

Jeneta@PlumJam says
What a fabulous giveaway. I have had difficulty sourcing hardware recently and end up purchasing from overseas. I love the handmade gifts my kids give me. They are usually made at school or in little nook of our house where I can’t see what they are doing. This year I received a lovely brooch, hair clip and a myriad of cards!

Thanks for a fabulous giveaway! I enjoy taking my mom out for a day of relaxation (mani/pedi, dress shopping, and tea brunch), then giving her time to relax at home doing whatever she wants to do while my siblings, father, and I do all the chores around the house 😀 I’d like to think she enjoys that too.
