OK, I'll join you all --have rulers, gadjets books too but it's all the little iddy bitty things that I find the hardest to
organize. Oh, but I do use most of them --used once at least when I first bought them. No time for another meeting.

Ok, you know how to get things de-magneted? ( I know that isn't a word) A sharp rap on the head! Well, nails etc. get a hammer, but surely we get a different kind of pop. I think there are several womens prisons that make quilts, you could donate some of your don't use stuff. Use it as a tax right off. Another thing I can think of is the girl scouts. Sometimes they too could use the tools. Then there are guilds, they are chronically making donation quilts ane would love being able to use good tools.
Just a thought, I can relate.
