My Great Aunt Sylvia, who died recently in her 90s, spent winters in her chilly North Yorkshire farm cottage making the most beautiful and intricate patchwork quilts with tiny octagons, hexagons and squares of old fabric. And her sister, my Granny Molly, made stunning rag rugs in rich jewel-like colours (pictured). Pick a serious craft.

When I was a kid, I shook my head at my Aunt. However, she enjoyed her hobby immensely and kept right on collecting things of interest to her. My Aunt used to keep her house cooler than was comfortable for her – to protect the antique marble top Victorian furniture she had. I know a few collectors. Also, keep the box!

My aunt and god-mother collected everything from spoons to stamps and dolls. Since I framed it myself and got the frame half price at Hobby Lobby, it only cost about $30 for the gift. Save those annual reports and dusty old stock certificates , they may be worth money! I come from a family with a few members that are avid collectors.

My aunt gifts her nieces and nephews with loaves of homemade cinnamon bread every Christmas. What are your hobbies and/or skills? My handwriting is atrocious and to professionally print all of those addresses would have been costly. My husband and I really appreciated that gift. What is your artistic talent? Baked Goods.

Then I visited the local fabric store and a hobby store to see what upholstery fabric selections there were and how much it ran. It is a family heirloom piece I inherited from an aunt who in turn inherited it from my maternal grandparents. To be honest, I was really shocked at how much they were.
