Oh my gosh, yes! Wonderful idea. I made my Daddy a frankenstuffie (got 3 stuffed animals from the thrift store and interchanged their parts to make 2 very unique stuffies. Daddy has one and I have the other. When Daddy goes places he takes his with him and we sleep with them until he comes back home. It's sweet and means a lot to us both. Perhaps you can consider that...here are my creations:

Littlespace Online does have a small crafting section. I think it's still being developed/worked on/expanded upon but...there are very easy to sew toys (stuffed animals) and the patterns there:

There are also the Caregiver Coupons, which I think are absolutely fantastic. You'd just need to print them off, write your gifts on them, and put the together some how. Cheap/free basically. Here:
