How did I ever live without this? is exactly what I said when I got mine, 5 years ago. I keep it in a 6" square clear plactic bin with a locking lid. I always know where it is. When I am on the run, I can grab the bin for applique on the go. It's filled with scissors, thread donut, glue stick, thimble, pins and needles, pencil, needle magnet and a pen magnet & a bandaid.
This CLOVER desktop needle threader and my FONS & PORTER seam ripper are absolutely the I best ever used, since 1970.
