[/quote] I bought ten pkgs of blades and my GF bought two. Also found two magnetic "bowls" to hold pins for $3.99. The one I got at the Expo was $12.95.[/quote]
I bought one of the small magnetic bowls and to my surprise when I put it down on my heavily padded ironing board, it stuck like glue, well almost.
I was delighted because I use my i.board for everything. It's set up immediately next to my machine and I place my pin cushions etc. on it while I'm sewing. Every once in a while my arm bumps it and the pins go flying. This totally prevents that. Plus it's just the right size ... not too big, not too small. I love it.
