    Many patterns come with more than one size printed on the same paper. I have used interfacing to trace the sizes I am planning to sew, thus saving the other sizes to use later for a different child or grandchild, or even the same child who has grown. I actually enjoy using the interface pieces more than I do the paper pattern pieces, and they fold up and last really well. When you were using the parchment paper, I thought that parchment paper would work very well for tracing patterns. I think I may try it. Thank you for all the ideas you share.

    Just yesterday before watching this video I decided I needed a silverware tray to put tools, pins, etc in while sewing. Then I watched the video and my idea popped up. Now to find an extra tray in the house or to buy one. I have vision problems now at 83 so threading my machine needle is hard. I have found that if I put a small piece of white paper behind the eye of the needle it makes it easier for me to thread it.

    I use 99% of the time 75/11 embroidery or sharp needles for my quilt projects! I stopped using a universal needle years ago when I learned that it between a sharp and a ballpoint - just didn’t like the stitches it made.

    I used to change my needles when they broke - and only when they broke. Thanks to you, I’ve learned that needles are one of the least expensive parts of sewing AND also one of the most important! Now, I change my needles regularly. And I’m more careful about choosing the right needle for the project.

    Many machines come with a button foot. I am now planning to organize my whole button box. A great rainy-day project. Temu sells heat-erasable markers...fine point, multi colors, WITH REFILLS. I keep my heat tool close, using it to erase mistake, or remove marks on non-washables. They have become my favorite notion ever. Also - PILL BOTTLES. I take a lot of meds, hence many bottles every month. My fave is keeping my water-soluble thread separate and dry.

    You forgot painter's tape - can use it on your machine for a line or ledge to sew against, tape together pattern pieces when you want to be able to remove them later etc. Doesn't leave adhesive on the machine. Also instead of makeup brushes I get cheap artist's brushes from the dollar store.
