I used my 50% off coupon to buy a small mat and some rulers (combo pack), as we plan on going camping in 3 weeks and I want to take my old machine with me. We go every year with 3 families, and they all fish. That's not my thing, so thought I might get away with taking my sewing machine. I can have our trailer all open and enjoy the outdoors- but be doing something I want to do. The new mat is just the perfect size.
