I do believe there are many gadgets for the quilter to buy that they may not use. We use our common sense in buying to get what we need to do the job well. I see a lot of gadgets for sale that I know I can do without and I do. There are some people who enjoy buying gadgets, I would rather be creative and find things I already have to use rather than buy some of the flimsy gadgets that are for sale. I think there may be a tendency for the business world to want to exploit buyers be they man or woman, it is up to us whether we allow them to exploit us.
