He asked for clothes so I'm trying to comply. I am almost done with a blue hoodie with crop circle applique (similar to one Marlena did last year but less girly :) ) A couple of vests, 2 other hoodies.

He's also getting another pair of fleece socks and I'm trying to finish the messenger bag I started for him for Father's Day and never finished. Just need to locate the half that is already sewn and has disappeared.

Nothing. Dh has little appreciation for handmade. I refuse to waste the time and love on him. :lol:

I bought him a pair of footed pajamas, because he's always saying how he wishes the kid's PJ's came in his size, now I want to embroider something on them or find a patch to sew on, because they are just plain gray.

We're also doing stockings and making each other something...I'll probably do lounge pants and a fleece hat/scarf set, just wanted to come up with something a bit more original or interesting. ;) Oh, I'm making him cashew bars for his stocking too.

Here are some kinda cool ideas, but not sewing related. ;)

Here You Can Find a Quick
Handmade Gift Idea for a Man:
Make a compilation CD or cassette of favorite songs. You can title it, “Favorites from the 80’s” or “Best of Jazz”. Add a cover that you design yourself by hand or on the computer.

Make or buy a little blank book. Decorate it according to this man’s interests or lifestyle. Take it around secretly to all his friends and family and ask them to write the answer to this question on a page: What do you like and respect most about (his name)?

Paint a sign or nice rock with his name and/or house number and plant in his front yard.

i haven't been sewing much lately, but i am making dh a couple things.
i took a picture of a tree when it was orange. there is also a pond in the pic and it looks fab. i bought a frame and matted it for him. it is a pic from our area and he loves that sort of thing.

i made him a cool collage of the kids for his desk b/c he has no pics of us there.

i bought a canvas at walmart and painted a design on it to match our living room. he likes art, and it wasn't very expensive, but i think he will like it.
