If you had $100: Recommendations
I received $100 for my birthday and Sew Expo is coming up. I would like some recommendations about what to spend my money on. Any suggestions are appreciated.

If you cut batting, then you have to have the new Batting scissors. I didn't think I need them until I used them for the first time. You will never regret having them. I would by a spool of every quality brand thread to compare if you haven't used any of them before.

If it's your first time at Expo, take lots of the short classes. They are a good way to learn a little about a lot - and then you can decide which techniques, books, etc. you want to pursue further. Have fun!

A belated Happy Birthday to you. I would buy tools, rulers, rotary cutters and blades, and of course FABRIC! Can't have enough fabric. And one pattern. It would be difficult trying to decide which pattern, but I would persevere! Whatever you decide, enjoy!

I'm a gadget girl, so I would probably find some wonderful gadget that I couldn't live without. There are different techniquest that I would like to try, so I would probably buy something that would allow me to try a new technique.
