Not Found In Quilt Shops~

I have some less-than-traditional  items in my sewing supplies.

I am sure you do too!

Here are a few of my favorites~

A foam placemat from the Dollar Tree~ your sewing machine foot will not move on this, even on carpet!

A metal chopstick from the Asian Market~ great for turning things, poking out corners, etc.

 

A witches finger -LOL-  It is the best finger stiletto! You can find them in the pop-up Halloween shops. ;-)

 

A retractable back scratcher?  Oh yes! Not only for that itch you can't reach, but it has a magnet in the palm~ great for picking up dropped clips and pins, and it has a long reach in case that spool rolls under the table. ;-) From Harbor Freight.

 

And a trimmer- it is battery operated and is the best seam ripper!  Again, Dollar Tree. ;-) You need to supply your own battery. 

Now tell me, what less-than-traditional things are in your sewing box?

Until next time~

Happy Stitchin'!
