Bump...we have new members on the board all the time...maybe they have some new things in their sewing rooms that we all "can't live without" if we once KNOW about them. :lol:

LOL QuiltnLee was the FIRST one to mention THREAD, and this is page FOUR of the thread!

Aggi was the first to mention FABRIC in the middle of p. 1, and NO ONE has said STASH!

My addition: THIS FORUM FOR LOTS OF IDEAS!

I go along with most all the list but the one thing I cannot do any kind of sewing without, that no one mentioned, is SORTWICK(or Tacky Fingers).

I worked in a bank for years and you have to have this to count money as well as sort papers(so anyone who works in an office knows about it).

I found out it is great for picking up your fabric. Can't do without it.

I have a gooseneck lamp with a magnifier on it. Use it for everything
from threading a needle to pulling out stitches to reading instructions.
Couldn't sew without it!
