    Wow - what lucky people to receive a gift from you. $300 would buy a pretty handsome gift.

    How about a personalised quilt. You can get them made I think. If you find a quilting / sewing shop and ask them for contacts of someone to make one for you. I've luckily got a relative that can do quilting and has made my DD one but got the 'quilting' (i.e. stuffing part of it) done out-sourced because I think you need a large machine to do the job properly.

    Hmmm, other ideas; put together a 'personalised pack' of some sort i.e. get some stickers made for the childs shoes, tupperware items, bags etc, a name plaque for it's bedroom, towels with it's name embroidered on it, cushion for the room, a jacket with it's name on it. (This was a gift I got from my parents when DD was a baby and I absolutely loved it).

    Happy shopping.

    They are a beautiful family and are not spoilt by their wealth whatsoever - and really give to people in need, and at one time they supported me greatly so this really is a small gesture hopefully.

    I'm really warming to the idea of personalised gifts, the teddy bear idea from aciyrn's mum is really great and I think a nice quilt embroidered also plus the plaque for the room would be really sweet.The cushion would be cute too, she can use it when she's like 5 for her really girly room.


    Sometime you go into a shop and you just think "that's perfect" - I think I'm waiting for that moment
