Helper #1:
On my trip to the fabric store, I found a $10 self-adhesive
measuring tape. Good idea, but VERY pricey. I happened to have
a measuring tape (which used to be part of an auto rewind tape measure until my
little one pulled it too hard and separated it from the rest...) I use
double sided tape to adhere the measuring tape to the edge of my sewing table.
From then on, I do not have to find my yard stick during sewing.
Technically, it's free.
Helper #2:
I had on my project list to make a beautiful quilted thread
catcher. But, sadly, other projects always climbed to the top of the
list. At the end of the day, my thread catcher was nowhere to be found.
I needed one badly! So, the compromise became a brown
paper bag taped to the edge of the table. Surprisingly, it has served me
well! Not only do I have a wide mouth thread catcher, it's deep enough to
last and it's disposible!! woohoo!
