Super big, i.e. 2.5 gal ziploc bags; various colored Sharpies, blue painters tape....at the list goes on and on...Obviously not suited for more traditional thinkers......actually, I told myself that I needed to find a large lot of scapel blades like the doctors use. I have been buying two similar type blades at Hobby Lobby, and really need a larger stash of these. For me, they beat the heck out of seam rippers!

Have a nice holiday event!
OMG: "Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!!!!"
I never can think of anything. Your list is going to town with me. Course, I could just go look around my quilt studio.
Reducing glass, clip on magnifying lenses, pipe cleaner strung with prewound bobbins and applique needles, white elephant, glue sticks, post it notes, distilled water, spritz bottle, portable iron mat that fold to a hot mit for iron, 5 pairs of Harbor Freight disposable scissors, scissor case, storage box, tracing paper, freezer paper, jar of old buttons, retractable measuring tape that fits in a purse, calculator that fits in a purse, snap-it bag, chap stick, mechanical pencil, temporary marking pen/pencil, pen cushion/trash bag, mat that goes under the machine with pockets on front to hold notions, tomato pen cushion marked with sizes/types sewing machine needles, nail files, Command strips, home made quilt hanger (thinking of heavy metal wire bent into a design, kind of like a garment hanger)....what fun it is to brainstorm......and of course.....chocolate. ...OH and it could be tied with wired craft ribbon.... OH and wrapped in a fat quarter. Did anyone get my name?
