Short note here. I have been waiting now for two weeks for 14 packages of rotary blades. They were holding two for me and somebody got them. So the manager is ordering a whole bunch more (hopefully). She says women are coming in ordering blades. They have been out for two weeks. And, the price is now $1.99 and I did ask the manager that since I ordered them at $1.49 I would expect that I would get that price. She said yes. Good!
Also, I got the cutest thing! It is a magnetic collapsible wand. It compacts to 5" and could pass for a pen! It w ill be fantastic for when I drop those pins.
One more thing - I just discovered at the age of almost 72 that I may be getting old. I was doing a crossword puzzle and 21 across was ----Pitt of the movies. So I wrote down Zasu. Imagine that! It was Brad!!!! Brad who???? Edie

I too have 10 pks on back order at my local HF and the manager said that he would sell them to me at the sale price of $1.49. He also handed me a 20% off coupon. Great guy.
But for those of you who do not have a HF near you I found that you can get 10 blades for $14.90. That is $1.49. Good deal at Jhittlesewing.com. You will have to pay S&H but still a good deal.

A while back someone was talking about the use of magnets near their electronic sewing machines. I emailed Brother, Inc. about magnets near the machines and this is the reply:
"Thank you for taking the time to write to us.
You can use a magnet in the sewing area only. A magnetic should never be placed near the main board or the LCD screen. A strong magnet should never be used.
We hope this information will be useful to you. If we can be of further assistance, please let us know."

Another thing I have by machine is a little seam ripper. I have the one with the clear top. I taped the top upside down on the side of my machine and the ripper just slips down in the top and is easy to get out to use.

PS - I paid $1.99 for the magnetic pin thing at HF. I think I just may get a few more for my quilting buddies! Neat gift, eh?

Edie, I got my little magnets before I knew there was a HF, and it was in town, so I didn't mind spending more for it rather than to have to travel to get one. The next time I'm there, at HF, I'll look for them and get some more. I seem to lose them at times, and the grand kids bend them playing with picking up safety pins.
