Since your husband has been such a big help with your sewing room, how about taking him out for a really nice dinner.
Or just save the card - they don't expire - and wait until something comes along that you can't live without.

I agree, a cool kit would be my choice.

I've got a Bernina 440QE with the medium and large hoops, lots of thread, plenty of fabric and a pimped out sewing room. But can't decide how to spend my $$.

Need some suggestions please!!!

I would definitely purchase a serger. Have wanted one for so long but don't have the money for one.

Do you have the large size rotating cutting mat? I lust after one of those. LOL. Or how about stocking in a couple of those luscious fabric collections they put together these days and you buy as a unit all co-ordinated? I especially love the batik ones. I never buy precuts because they are too expensive, but with a gift like that I might even indulge myself in a stack of precuts.

I agree with DMotyl, a quilting weekend to meet new friends and learn a new technique. It seems that you have everything you want right at hand, so a quilting adventure may be a great idea!!!
Or find a Featherweight with a date that is meaningful to you.

I am like everyone else I would love to see a picture of your sewing room. I have a sewing room but it is filled to the max no room to turn around for all the things I have in there. But if I had $250 to spend I would still be able to find some more fabric I would want to make a quilt out of. Good luck on figuring out what you want to purchase and let us all know what you end up doing. You know as I was finishing up typing I was thinking of my running around quilting buddies I think if I extra money and didn't need or want something for my quilting I would take all of them out to eat. Just a thought :0)
