No sewing today

I didn’t get any sewing done today sadly.  I had to go out and find a new iron.  I’m fussy, I like one that shuts off after so many minutes or when tipped over and I like a light weight iron too.  And I like one with a good steam and spray.  Black and Decker has been my brand for as long as I remember so I went to the Black and Decker outlet first, and it was worth the trip.  I found exactly what I wanted, and a new iron for the retreat box too. 

Then I went to the marine supply store, I was looking for something special, a new tackle box to become my retreat supply box.  I found one that I was pretty sure would fit most of what I needed to take retreating with me and bought it only after I was assured I could return it if it wasn’t right.  When I started putting stuff in it I was amazed at how well it did work, and I got more in it then I even planned on putting in it.  It’s not purple but it’s as close perfect as a tackle box can be for my use!

    I have the same tackle box for all my sewing supplies. I think it ROCKS!! I did see the manufacturer of these tackle boxes at the Craft & Hobby Association trade show last summer and they are coming out with a line of fun colors too.

  2. So glad you found the perfect iron for your sewing needs. Love the tackle box. I wish they came in purple. It is my favorite color.
