Good for you Michelle. I think it is always important to keep your hubby off balance. LOL

I got a side ways screwdriver. It's perfect for removing the screw in my cover plate.

I got clamps to attach quilts to a table when I'm pinning it.

I recently purchased a three shelf cart with wheels. It's for keeping my work space clean but it can hold my other projects so I don't forget about them. Love the cart by the way it is red.

I shop at Harbor Freight, while my dh just follows me around in there. I buy their carpet blades, the magnetic bowls, (don't get them around the computerized machines). I got the long 14" scissors which I do like for cutting batting.
the magnetic long wand. My favorite item is the drawer storage thing with all the little drawers for bolts and nuts!

magnet on telescoping wand, blades for rotary cutter, magnet bowels, ratchet screwdriver, utility scissors about 14 inches, set of drawers to hang on wall (holds really small things, needles, special buttons, chalk) hooks and baskets for my peg board, a collapsible cart with wheels and handle to toate my supplies to classes, and retreats. I'm sure I'm forgetting something, LOL

I got a small laser light that mounts on my machine (on the frame) so I can trace a pantograph.It mounts by sticky tape, screws, or magnetic tape. I have a second light that I am thinking of mounting on the front of my regular machine so I can follow a line of stitching (like the new machine that has a laser light directly in line with needle). I think it only cost $5. and DH was the one who found it for me - the manufacturer of my frame wanted $60 for a "laser light" that works the same way.

One favorite is the extending magnetic rod that I pick up wayward pins with. I'm not at all limber any more and often use it to pick up the scissors and other heavier stuff I drop------and I drop a lot. I've got an extra on in the kitchen to pick up dinnerware off the floor--------drop a fork or spoon every time I go to the kitchen

And I could never go back to a cloth pin cushion. I've got a 4" and a 6" magnetic parts bowl.

I also bought a head lamp that has an adjustable light. It's on a head band sort of thing. I don't use it all the time, but it's really handy for threading the needle.

I'm going to have to apologize up front------------but don't magnet BOWELS get to be a pain in the gut?

I really shouldn't even joke about this. I'm the worst speller and typist on this board.
