    I would love to have the brown beige and the brights thread sets from connecting threads. I have used mine almost completely up. They are great for quilting.

    Oh ... I just ordered myself 6 queen sized batting from there at a great price.

    I like this idea. DH and I buy what we want throughout the year. He always gets me jewelry. I told him this year no jewelry. Gift card (VISA) would be nice. Can use it anywhere.

    I usually just ask for a donation to my favorite charity. I can get whatever I want for me (Thank you, God!) so never really 'want' or 'need' anything.

    DH and I tell each other, "You just bought me a (fill in blank) for Christmas. Do you want to wrap it?"

    Back in January I announced to my husband that I wanted to upgrade to a new machine this year. Mission accomplished as of Black Friday.

    i love this topic. Shops could capitalize on these ideas for gift baskets for families to drop in and pick up a quick gift for the sewers and quilters in their lives.

    I have the Accuquilt Go and I love mine. I bought the hunter star die a few weeks ago and I can't believe how easy cutting went. My blocks are more even and match up better then cutting myself. Yesterday I ordered 3 more dies from JoAnn they have then on sale at really good prices.

    Wish list, Martelli rotary cutter, for right hand, I also need a new iron, I can always use fabric, and I would like a cutting mat the size of my cutting table. Thats about it. Oh and I did see a couple of books at Annies that caught my eye.

    I don't want gift cards from my hubby...that seems silly...I can just use the debt card from our account. And yes he has done that before...I was not impressed. I do love it when we go shopping together to go pick out something for him, me or for the two of us.

    I want a daylight lamp that can be adjusted to "really" light my handwork. I have one of the original Ott light floor lamps and it isn't adjustable enough to target what I am working on. In order to shine on what I'm working on, it has to be propped against the end table, very unstable.

    I also can get whatever I want or need. And I do give to charities throughout the year. My kids like to have "things to open on Christmas" for us and we always ask them for a wish list so they want want one from us. I took someone's advice and made a wish list on amazon. I asked for small things such as pins, blades, thread, etc. If everyone in the family picks one or two of the items and puts it in a stocking, it can be a great "from the whole family gift and not cost a lot for anyone!

    from the other end of the financial spectrum here. living on a small pension.no stash and still one daughter at home, in school. we have no extra $ so favorite cookies, chores and hand sewn or crocheted items. and we do shop for the little ones. I do without a bit of things to shop for the kids and grandsons and love it. They love the fleecy jammies and I made placemats and table toppers for each daughter. they asked what I wanted and I had a small list-thread. can always use that and rotary blades, needles and I would love a bobbin winder. I always think I have enough wound and it never fails-almost done and the bobbin runs out! oh, and Holiday fabrics. good to have a little to get started on next years ornaments etc.
    hope you all get at least a few of the things you're wishing for!
