    Things you usually look at and put back because they are a bit too expensive!

    I agree. Get something you normally wouldn't. Enjoy it though.

    I'd spend it (and then some) on fabric LOL but agree that if there are items you look at and say, oh no I couldn't spend that on me YOU SHOULD. Whatever that may be....a pattern you adore, some new shears, a stack of ribbons and trims, the latest must have notion, pincushions (I'm a pincushion addict so had to add that one), baskets for organizing your stash, etc.

    I just purchased organizers for my stash when my in-laws sent birthday money. Best purchase I've made in quite a while and helped me to get moving on de-cluttering my sewing room.

    Have fun!
