Keeping track of your seam ripper
#16
A good tip! I have a shallow basket beside my machine, and I just toss in there all the things I'm currently using - machine feet, package of current machine needle size, extra wound bobbins, small scissors, seam ripper, etc. Being shallow, it can't be overfilled without spilling everything out, but it can get crowded! lol

thats what i do, the trick is, to make sure it ends up back in the cap! LOL!

I keep a pair of small scissors at each sewing machine for cutting threads - since you cannot use magnets at most machines anymore, I have put a 3M hook on each machine for holding the scissors - that way they don't get lost under stuff, or on the floor or wherever
