    Sunliten, I use exactly the same method, although my strip just has that red light that shines. I went to great lengths to find a iron that doesn't have an automatic shut off switch so I need to guard against the Senior Moments. Since everything is hooked into the same strip I know that if my sewing machine light isn't on everything is off.

    Great Minds

    One lady on the Quilting Board has a master switch at the door that turns off every thing in her Newly created sewing room.

    Smart lady. I wish I had a main switch too. I have left my little iron on sometimes overnight......lucky I didn't burn the house down.

    Good ideas here. I think I would need a Batman spotlight on my power strip to get my attention. I do like the idea of a whole room master switch.

    Daylight Savings Time is kicking my caboose! After doing a little laundry, vacuuming, and tidying the kitchen, this chick is ready for a nap! Hope to sew some later. While starting to assemble stars yesterday, I got sidetracked by starting a string quilt with strings being leaders and Enders . Got way more string blocks done and not one star! I'm a mess....

    Waiting for the next clues, I made this Mini for my house. It is called "Spring Ahead"!

    It is hard to find fabric with people in it!! I was so pleased to find the people print on a visit to San Diego. Dotty
