I agree that when you make something you expect and hope that the receiver will use it. I sew mainly for myself. But I do make gifts for friends. A friend came over the other day and she was carrying a purse that I had made for her over five years ago. She said that it was one of her favorites. My mother taught us to always make as many gifts as we can. Her gifts were baked goods. She taught us that "...a gift of the hand is a gift of the heart..." And the creative process draws on our love for the person that will be the recipient.
The way I treat a dish towel? This would be framed art!
