I have a bunch or 60 inch plastic measuring tapes all over, I find them very handy for measuring quilt tops, large lengths of fabric, etc.
I also like an after market box to store my feet in. It's made by Bernina, which I have and it holds their feet, extra bobbins, walking foot and other accessories really well, it's a small footprint on my sewing area, has several drawers. I got it on E-bay (or fleabay as DH Calls it).
