Thank you all for your help with this. It may seem like a small issue but it is a pesky one. I have had several offers and there is currently a tuna can pin cushion on its way from a board member out west. This board is so amazing and I can personally attest that we take GOOD care of each other and the needs posted here. My DH can't get over how good quilters are!
I know that some are wondering why I resist making one myself. I was widowed quite suddenly when my adored first DH left to play handball and died on the court. I have moved several times and remarried since and have purged down to only quilting essentials. No other craft tools are in my arsenal. Since learning that life can change suddenly, I resist replacing those things as quilting is all I REALLY want to do. My current adored DH (a scandalous fabric enabler) is so good to me that I'd rather he spend that money on bait and gas for his boat than buy supplies I won't use again.
