wow lot of good suggestions, thanks I have added several things to my shopping list. what's the beeswax for? and I don't know what a bias is, do you use that a lot.

LOL on the scissors, I was planning on having THAT conversation with my husband tonight, I often find my kitchen utensils like my chicken scissors, colanders and strainers in the garage. I am going to lay down the rule on my sewing scissors and threaten him with bodily harm if he puts his paws on them

I am bad at sewing straight lines so Nancy thanks for the tip, even though I am not sure I understand it 100% but maybe when I try it I will understand.
I am also bad at sewing even size stitches, is that because I am not keeping an even speed on the pedal. LOL my husband says that I never hold a constant speed when I drive so perhaps that's what I tend to do when sewing. Good idea on the carpet roller, I have a large rug under the table so that will come in handy. I just bought the pins with large pink and white ball heads, figured they would be easy to see when sewing over them. As a kid I can remember breaking a lot of needles when hitting the head on the pin.

I can't wait to get back to Joann's and I just got some more coupons, so far no one has made mention of electric scissors, I am still wondering about them

Kathy please share a few more things from you sewing kit, even if I am not ready for the advanced stuff I want to start thinking about it
