I was going to post a question about what to look for at my very 1st quilt show DH is taking me to in Houston this month but reading this post I seen some things I'd like to have so I made myself a list off of your lists to look for so I wont be posting my question but if anyone comes up with anything else I'm all ears!
PS, Is the fabric there usually priced a lot cheaper than at LQS?

That would be a GREAT idea for this board! We could have a wish list section so people that are shopping for us for X-mas, birthdays, etc. could go there and see a list of what we'd REALLY like as gifts!!! We could even list the products , and the best places to buy, or even places we'd like gift certificates for!

I "discovered" 2 things at a retreat this week--a Big Time hands free magnifier that I bought at a quilt show a week ago and my Dr. Scholls $20 vibrating, heating seat pad for my office chair. With that set up I sewed for 3 days and no back ache!! Made me sit up very straight and was just perfect.
My wish list right now would be a real design wall (I use the guest room bed) and either a ScanN Cut or Shilouette Cameo. But I'm getting a new knee instead....

Watch joanns fabric for when they have their ott lights on sale. I have bought several on sale for less than 1/2 price. I have heard but never checked that some of their bulbs fit in regular sockets

I have a low end Brother and a high end Brother, and this is what I have learned. You can FMQ on a low end Brother, just buy a "darning" or "FMQ" foot. They don't cost much, usually around $10 or less. Put your machine on a couple old mouse pads from computers to control bounce and vibration, and go for it! I believe in you. You can do it!
