I have looked at Rowenta irons but have held back. You guys don't wont to know how often I knock my iron off the board by either bumping into the board or some mishap. I'd be so mad at myself if I did that to a $100+ iron. So far I've stuck with $30 and under irons. I've went through 2 since I started sewing. Lol

Great idea on the fray check! Thanks for the tip!

Love love that seam ripper with the magnifying glass. Neat! I'm only 29 but have awful eyesight. Without my contacts in I'd run into a pole right in front of me. Lol

I too would like to learn about different sewing machine feet.

And can anyone tell me about sergers? A good brand? How they work? I need one since I started sewing clothes for people I think. I currently do that fake a serge technique I found online on YouTube by doing a zig zag stitch right next to my straight stitch and trimming by hand with my gingher dressmakers scissors.
