    I have a bunch, but I can't choose just one so I'll list them all.

    1. A bolt of kimono fabric with an obi sash (good kimono fabric is pricey)
    2. Long arm sewing machine with an instructor...and a place to put it!
    3. Jelly rolls, charm packs, honey buns, turnovers, etc. in cordinating fabric that I actually like
    4. A large selection of goth type fabrics I have yet to find in any typical quilting website
    5. The complete set of Gundam Wing manga (in English)......to read during sewing breaks (I typically have the anime DVD's on while quilting)
    6. A trip to Japan which wouldn't be complete without eating at an authentic ramen stall, entertainment from a geisha, seeing the cherry blossoms in full bloom, visiting the Lolita clothes store "Baby, Stars Shine Bright", buying a kamikaze coat, and playing pachinko.
    7. Reservations at one of Iron Chef Morimoto's restaraunts.
    8. My own place. Preferably with my boyfriend. If anything, a clean room or at least time to clean it.

    hum, I would like a fancy, yet simple quilting machine or even better, a gift card to Joanns to buy a machine and all the supplies i could want! I guess the machine would be the best thing, tho!

    Well I have had to wait and really think, I guess it is more a dream.... but a house where I can have a organized fabric storage room, a room for my library of books and inspiration, a large room for sewing (for more than one machine)and cutting with a multi layered design wall system, a small kitchen for coffee and snacks to keep me going. Then a sitting room with very comfortable chairs and footstools with excellent light and a TV to watch and room for friends. Oh don't forget a room for quilting and sewing history full of those loved machines and sewing accessories. Then fairies who swish in and clean in the night so all is clean and ready to use the next day. Yes I would like a new machine since my 1222 Phaff I sewed the check spring off and it will no longer sew a good stitch.
    But alas my friends I have always said if you dream it you can achieve it well I keep hanging on to and defining this dream maybe one day I will be able to make it come true. Mean while my best friend gave me her 7570 to sew with so I can keep creating.

    A quilt top of Dresden Plate Medallion
    in very brillant colors, would be my dream gift
    just doubt, I'd ever piece one together,
    that's a hard one, but admire it very much,
    dreaming in Texas :)
