I hope I am not repeating, but years ago i bought a telescoping magnet from Sears, and it is wonderful for picking up needles and pins that I drop when I am sewing. I second the thread catcher. I also love my magnet pincushions. I have severa,l and each one holds different pins, that way i am not looking for a certain type pin when I am working.

A nice pair of Gingher scissors would be nice. Machine needles, a small organizer, a pattern for a sewing machine cover, and other items she's interested in, a Big Board for her ironing board (ha! not a stocking stuffer!) 
Maybe you could make her a pin cushion? (special little gift from you)

Wow, so many great suggestions. If she paper pieces an "add a quarter" ruler. A box of Crayola ultra washable fine tip markers. Color filters for determining value https://www.amazon.com/Color-Evaluat...04398699&psc=1
One of these for ease of oiling her new machine https://www.amazon.com/Refillable-Ne.../dp/B004WWYL2K
I also use all manner of drafting tools. I would be lost without my compass and protractor and I also love my flexible curve ruler and stencil of circles in all different sizes. I use these tools mostly to draft out quilting designs so maybe save these tools for a few years down the road.
Not stocking stuffers but inexpensive items to put under the tree: quilting books, preferably ones with loads of patterns like these two:
