    I like the pretty folders, with the pocket on each side. When I pull stuff from quilt mags, I use the folders... Also, for patterns I print off, templates, whatever. Nice to way to organize a project too...

    1. 3 ring binders to store your patterns that you print off from the computer
    2. long three hole punch
    3. plastic sleeves to hold patterns'
    4. pencil holders to keep your scissors, rotary cutter in
    5. desk organizers
    6. new mouse pad so you can cover with fabric

    Those black and white composition books make nice gifts when a soft fabric cover is added to them. Check on the board for a few tutorials on how to make them.

    extra lead for your mechanical pencils if you use them to mark quilts. Graph paper.
