So my Wednesday breakfast group told me that the place to go for the IBOL sewing tools was....Dollar Tree. I stopped there and found these little sewing kits for a dollar each. I know the scissors is crummy, but it has needles and 12 colors of thread, a couple of buttons, a needle threader and a plastic thimble. I also bought a package of 200 safety pins for a dollar and I'm adding 20 to each kit, as well as some of my straight pins.
So now I am just waiting for my bundle of 10 APO flat rate bhoxes to be delivered by USPS. The Post Offices around here were all OUT of them, so I ordered over the internet, and they are free.
A couple of years ago I thought I was going to use a lot of plaid flannel--and now it doesn't look like it is ever going to happen. So I can now "use" that fabric strategically in this "surge" of sewing materials to Iraq. Good deal all around!
