So, scraps, lots of scraps!!

I am a scrap person, I am in heaven when some one gives me a bag/box of scraps, I have to get them out and stroke them, fold them into a orderly pile, then put them back into the container, I make about one scrap quilt a week, all for charity.
I also love magazines, having once owned a shop that sold magazines, at the end of their lives there would be quilting magazine for me, aeroplane magazines for my Husband and motorcycle magazines for son. We have all become magazine junkies VBG

the old hobby of smocking on corduroy and making them into pillows - think of the 70's, my mom is actually making them again - in the stores they are about $25! what goes around comes around!
hand sewing needles - I love the old timey kits.
