I would love to exterminate those little gremlins that come in and move your scissors, seam ripper, chalk and everything else you might be looking for while you are gone. I have no children in the house so is has to be those critters. I hate spending precious sewing time looking for "stuff".

I've always wondered why modern machines could not install some kind of warning about this. A bell, whistle, the machine just stops....something! I'd like to have back all the minutes I've sewn w/o bobbin thread, through all the years I've sewed!

Fabric colors that run, then I wouldn't have to wash one piece before I cut.

Fabric colors that run get my vote too!

I would rid the quilting world of seam rippers....they would never be needed again!
