    My favorite gift I have given is a quilt I made, because it feels so good giving something that you worked hard on and spent time making it. I can’t wait for Christmas to see my little girls face when she opens her new doll and all the clothes I’ve made with Liberty Jane’s Patterns!! Thank you so much for what you do!!

  3. nellana cook /

    I think it will have to be the cookbook I found for my mom last year. It was one that she loved so much that hers was in tatters so I got her a new one.

  4. the wardrobe I made for my grand daoughter’s baby doll. Took me all summer but she loves it.

  5. The favorite gift I have given is my time spent in a homeless shelter. Cooking for needy families so they could have a nice Christmas meal.. I also made sockings and filled them with candy and passed them out.. It was so rewarding….

  6. My favorite gift I’ve given is a Willow Tree figurine because those little figurines have so much special meaning in them. :)

  7. My favorite gift I’ve given was my son’s star wars At AT last year because he loves it so much and it looks like a plastic robot dog.

  8. My favorite gift is the flannel/fleece pj pants I have made for my nieces and nephews. My SIL says that they call them “Aunt Karen pants” and wear them lounging around on cold days. I make them every year for my kids too, and this year even my husband wanted some. :)

  9. Kiara Green /

    The favorite gift that I have given if my gift of love torawds my family because they know that I love and care for them so much and it trully is the best gift of all!

    PS. I love that shirt its so creative!

  10. My favorite gift I’ve given is the outfits I’ve made for my niece because she loves them so much and always opens my gifts first (I guess she knows what’s in that box from her Aunt!.

  11. My favorite gift i gave was at the hospital because i have been there a lot and have missed a lot of things because of it i gave it to one of the child life specialst because they were always helping me get through things and giving me things so i gave alice a card i made with her fave things and a turkey pin i made :)

  12. Cheryl Pigott /

    The favorite gifts I have given are always handmade, because I feel I am leaving a piece of myself to everyone who receives them. I quilt, crochet, knit, scrapbook, and sew. There are several other things I make, but the predominate are the above. My grandchildren always receive something that I make, even if it is the sugar cookies that they help me decorate for santa.

  13. “My favorite gift I’ve given is a secret santa gift to a member or our troops in battle because I too was in the military and realize the need for those keeping our country safe to know how much we appreciate what they are doing for us.

  14. My favorite gift I have given is sewing lessons to my 2 nieces because it’s a gift they will be able to use for a lifetime!

  15. My favorite gift that I have given is a box of paper craft materials that I gave my daughter, because she had so much fun making so many things from it. Now she’s ready to start sewing things, so I can guess what her next birthday will bring!

    About 9 years ago when I was a newlywed, my father-in-law passed away. We made a quick trip to South Carolina from Indiana. While we were there, my mother-in-law GAVE me her entire boot box full of family photos. I took them home, organized them, and put them in a scrapbook, all without my husband knowing. Then I mailed the book to SC for my mother-in-law to do the journaling under each picture. She then sent it back (to my mom’s house). I gave it to my husband and he cried. It was the best gift I’ve ever given. All of his family ask to look at it again when they are at our house. Well worth the time and effort it took to do it all–and keep it a secret!

  17. My favorite gift that I’ve given was a green bay packers jersey for my husband. He has been a big fan for a long time, but didn’t want to spend the money on a “.frivolous” item. I wanted to show him how much we appreciate him and his hard work in providing for our family.

  18. My favourite gifts I have given are the handmade lounging housecoats I make my mother. Over the years I have made at least 5 in different weights of fleece so she can cuddle up warmly in any weather. There is a front zip so she doesn’t have to struggle with buttons or ties and it is long enough to tuck her toes under so she doesn’t have to hunt for her slippers. Anything to help with easing an elderly arthritic woman is appreciated.

  19. My favorite gift I’ve given is a 18 inch doll bed my husband and I designed together. He made the bed in his workshop and I sewn the beding. The look on my granddaughter face when she received it Priceless.

  20. Michele Trevino /

    I gave money to a Friend and her baby one year because she didnt have anything and Its something God wanted me to do! I have been Blessed so many times that Blessing other people makes me happy! :))

  21. Vanessa /

    My Favorite gift that I’ve given is a Jean Quilt for my Parents. We recently moved halfway across the country from them and my mom says she thinks of us every time she uses it.

  22. Kari Hoeth /

    My favorite gift ever given was a quilt and pillows made from concert tees because it was made for my then boyfriend, now husband and it is still his favorite!

  23. valarie /

    my favorite gift I give is the pajamas I make for my kids to wear on Christmas eve. My kids wear them all year, and my daughter always hates it when they get to small and she has to give them away.

  24. My favorite gift I’ve given is probably a NFL Bengals Hat that my sister and I gave to my dad last year. We actually gave it to him a few days early, because we were leaving for the zoo and he was upset that he couldn’t find a hat to wear. So, we handed it to him and said “Merry Christmas!” Those are the best memories. :)

    Thanks for the chance to win! Love those boots!!

    ~Liz~

  25. Alice Love /

    My favorite gift I’ve given is a Justin beiber necklace to m best friend.

    “My favorite gift I’ve given is Christmas to another family] because we decided we didn’t need much and wanted to help others. We have alsondeveloped a great friendship along the way as well] … “

  27. Firinel /

    My favorite gift I’ve given is my mother’s AAA membership that I give her each year because she has to travel for work, and it gives the whole family peace of mind to know that if something happened to the car, she wouldn’t be stuck out on the road alone for long.

  28. Jennifer H /

    My favorite that I have given was the big Star Wars Millenium Falcon ship that I gave my son two years ago. It is my favorite because my oldest daughter and I went to get in line at the store at 5am for the sale. We got there and there was a long line(it wasn’t even Black Friday. lol). Figured out the line was for a different toy and to get into the store. Scored a bonus for my youngest daughter too that morning and my son’s toy was on sale for an amazing price. Just brings back so many great memories of standing in line with my oldest daughter and laughing.

  29. VickiT /

    My favorite gift was to my husband before we were married. I bought him a gorgeous Black Hills Gold ring and had the jeweler add diamond into the ring. It turned out just beautifully. He’s never taken it off since so I am thrilled. I know he loves it because he never wore jewelry when we met.

    Thank you for the granny square afghan also. I am trying to learn crochet again so this may be something I can do by this time next year for my Granddaughter.

  30. My favorite gift i have given is a tie rack I made for my dad. He kept it on his wall with ties for over fifty years!

  31. Katrina /

    My favorite gift I’ve given is homemade gifts for all the little ones in the family because despite hard times I am able to show them that they are loved by myself and my kids even if we only get to see them once every couple of years. I’m also able to show my children that even though we don’t have a lot of money to give someone a heartfelt gift.

  32. Shannon /

    My favorite gift I’ve ever given is a set of ornaments that I personalized with family names. My mom has always been a huge fan of the soap opera, “Days of Our Lives,” and always wanted bulbs with family names on them just like the Horton family on that soap. I purchased glass bulb ornaments and several Sharpie paint markers and I went to town! She was thrilled and touched, and I was just happy to give her something she’d always wanted.

    This year, by the way, I added two to our set: one for my nephew and one for my boyfriend’s son, who insisted that “Grammy” should have an ornament with his name on it!

    One more thing: I love your site, I love your doll clothes, and I love that you’re doing these giveaways. Regardless of whether I win or not, thanks so much!

  33. Miranda W. /

    My favorite gift that I have given is a crocheted dragon that I made for my cousin. He really loves dragons,so when I saw a pattern to crochet one I knew I had to do it for him(even though it had to be done in a really short amount of time) I worked on it every moment of the day for 8 days so it would be ready just in time for his birthday. Seeing him smile made it all worth it. :)

  34. The best present I have ever given is my time to be there for my children and grandchildren whenever they want or need me

  35. The best gift i gave was…the life to a dog I rescued from a shelter one Christmas. We gave him a great home and he gave a whole lot of love in return. Miss him…..

  36. My favorite gift I’ve given would have to be the quilt I made for my husband on our 10th anniversary. It was just so cool to his expression when he opened it knowing that I had spent so much love and effort on it.

  44. Candy Lacy /

    My favorite gift I’ve given was taking my daughter to AG Place Chicago to pick out her AG doll, Kit, because we had a special day and she has loved her doll for many years. Although my daughter is now 18 and off at college, Kit still has a special place in her room and in her heart.

  45. TRACY G. /

    My favorite gift I have ever give was an watch set I gave my mother 10 years ago. It was almost identical to the one her father had given her when she was 16 years old. Sadly, that watch was stolen in a break-in and Granddad has passed on, but the look on her face and tears that followed were priceless.

  46. My favorite gift I’ve given is an out of production Lego set for my son because he had it on his wish list a really long time and was completely surprised and overjoyed when I found one for him! He really never expected to get it and I never expected to find one as reasonably priced as I did!

  47. My favorite gift I’ve given is my husband’s psp(playstation). He’s had it for several years now, and still plays it. And my girls love to watch him play it ( which I think is silly, but sweet nonetheless)

Last year my Daughter got her first AG Doll, Kit, and I made an entire wardrobe for Kit and some matching things for my daughter. I also took several of my husbands and my old uniforms from our service in the military and cut them up and made several quilts out of them for my nephews. They really liked them.

  51. Gosh, this is hard. I think of the gold ring I put on my husband’s hand and the four children I gave him; the times I’ve been able to slip a $100 bill into an envelope for a friend who needed it; the handmade dolls, quilts and jewelry…The favorite gifts I’ve given are the ones that are most loved and appreciated by the receiver.

  109. Christine /

    “My favorite gift I’ve given is always to the Giving Tree at our Church each year, because we are on mission to give to those in need” this year is toward a van to use to go on missions trips and care-on-the-square. “worship fully, spend less, give more, love all” (CVC Church).

  110. The favorite gift I have given was making bags and filling them with small toys and gifts to be given out on the Indian Reservation in Arizona. One year I crocheted small balls with eyelash yarn in white and made “snowball” Christmas ornements for my whole family. Thanks so much for your inovative designs and offering of your patterns and free patterns for us to make clothes for the dolls in our lives.

  111. Wow, this is really a hard one to answer! I remember the years I gave all handmade gifts and it felt so good to see those goods in use at their homes. Sadly, I had to go to work full time and wasn’t able to continue that every year! This year I am making my granddaughters outfits with matching outfits for their AG dolls!

  112. The best gift I’ve ever gave is the annual “Adopt-A-Family” at my church. My teen group hosts a spaghetti dinner in the beginning of December at my church’s Advent Party to raise money. After, we go shopping at Walmart with lists of toys, clothing and sanitary supplies the family needs. We wrap the gifts and bring them to the family’s house. It is a very heartwarming experience! :)

  113. My favorite gift I’ve given was a recliner chair my sister and i gave my dad. Its always hard to decide what to get parents – he loved that chair – it fit him – no one else felt quite as comfortable sitting there. Now that he is gone, memories of him lounging in that chair are a treasure.

  114. My favorite gift I have given was an ExerSaucer because it was for our first grandchild’s first Christmas!

  115. Diane Brimmer /

    THis year has been financially tough. We are haveing a homemade Christmas. I am so grateful to you for the free patterns and I have been able to still see that my granddaughters have a gift from grandma. So my favorite gift I’ve given is the little hobo bags and the money because Kayden, (my grandddaughter) loves money and purses. She will be so excited when she sees them!

    My favorite gift I’ve given is love. Money can buy material things, and time buys something else entirely, but love comes from the heart. When you give it and see the looks on other people’s faces… well, love isn’t entirely selfless, but it’s one of the greatest things you can give.
