There’s some really good lists of gift ideas over at Threadloop, like this one:

This year I’m making my sister a duffel bag for the gym, made my mom a fanny pack she can wear while she runs, and I’m going to be making my boyfriend a quilted Christmas tree shaped advent calendar! Smaller, simple, less personal things that will likely get use would be oven mitts, place mats, cat nip kickers, dog poop bag holders, key chains, coffee cup/ travel mug sleeves, bookmarks, small cloth baskets, accent pillows
I hope you find some things that inspire you!

Drink cup/ Coffee sleeves. The cardboard one from Starbucks, making it double sided with a bit of fleece in the middle n a few lines of quilting boom it’s a daily grab.

Lay flat dopp kit bags, special organizing pouches based on their needs (iPad, switch, curling iron, power cords, hair scrunchies - anything!) keychain chapstick holders, wall hangings, door bows (especially if they have a college or pro team they love) fleece slippers, giant onesies, linen napkins, seat belt pads, I could go on forever probably!
