Ideas for shirt cuffs needed please

Today I finally got around to updating my Etsy shop and adding all of the hot holders that I had made for my last bazaar.  Feels good to get a variety of items listed...hopefully it will translate in to more sales :).  How cute are these for Valentine's Day?

I've also decided that I am going to give away a $25 gift card once my Facebook page reaches 300 likes...only 124 more to go!  Help me get there and then get in on the action.  Who doesn't love free money?  Plus I post there more than here so you can stay up to date with whatever fun projects I'm making.  Like this little wrap around pot holder...just waiting on feedback from the product tester.

I'm currently working on three memory quilts for a lady and her two daughters.  Her husband passed away after 45 years, 4 months and 1 day of marriage.  This was the first time that I have been to someone's house to pick the clothing up.  It was a very different experience from receiving a package in the mail.  She started to tear up as I was putting the shirts in my car.  I can't imagine how difficult it must be for her having her husband of so many years not there any more.  I'll be posting photos of the finished quilts on here when I'm done.  Right now I have 86% of the squares cut...now I have to piece together 31 more to make all of the blocks needed for two queen and one king size quilt.

I'm trying to think of something neat to do with the cuffs from the long sleeve shirts and the buttons...anyone have any ideas for me?
