Ok girls, let's play pretend. We are going to a bridal shower and we are going to fill up a one of a kind sewing basket full of everything we think a woman will need to care for her families sewing needs.
I will go first. Of course we need a basket of some sort. Preferably one with a nice fitting lid. So I am bringing the basket.
What will you put in?

fabric pull fixer. Not sure if that is their exact name or not but. You insert it into a fabric that has a pull and the push the pull thru the backside. Works great on sweaters. Ok girls if there is a name for this tool, let me know.
