wish list redux

the first quarter of 2011 is over. let's re-examine my wishlist, shall we?

1. dress form - GET. although, not a singer diana. i will still call her diana.

2. serger - no.

3. a ginormous self healing cutting mat - no.

4. pinking shears - GET.

5. edged quilting ruler - no.

6. tailor's ham and seam roll - yeah...still have not made them. need sawdust!

7. more shelving spaces & work space - i wish. the bf did get me a mini chest of drawers from his old neighbor. teak. super freakin heavy for its small size. i use it to store some notions.

8. an uber quality steam iron with auto shut-off instead of my cheapo black and decker one that i accidentally left on for 4 hours + when i went out. the apartment was really warm when i came back. also, possible fire hazard - GET. thing is, now i kind of hate the auto shut-off. LOL. but it steams SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO well! just a black & decker steam advantage i bought on a whim (read: without research) from walmart. less than 20 bucks. though, now i'm looking online, and i really should have gotten a retractable cord one for easy transport. BECAUSE I'M ALWAYS CARRYING AN IRON WITH ME EVERYWHEREZ. (lie).

ETA: omg that's 4/8 things on the list! i am doing so freakin well! however, the serger will stay on the list for a few seasons, because i really want the babylock model that costs.......... over $1,000. maybe next year...maybe!
