The Universal Gift

I've been inspired to think about doing handmade gifts this christmas. Perhaps it was reading the latest edition of Mankind Magazine, which this month is all about Handmade...

Either way, I'm trying to think of what would be suitable for all members of my family. It's hard to think of a universal gift.

I can knit, do photography, hand sew (badly!), draw things (badly!), and cut stuff out. I just need ideas. Anyone?

Can you cook? Jam is always a hit with our family.

We bought some jars in bulk, Michael cooks the jam and I design the labels. Cheap, homemade, always enjoyed and they look lovely wrapped in cellophane with bright ribbons.
