I always need marking pens that erase with water or air. I live where it is always dry and the pens dry up quickly even when capped.
I am always running out of thread!! Never have enough!
I am always in need of strong thread and hand sewing needles. I do a lot of hand sewing and am always in need of both.
I need needles! I recently had to hand sew something and I didn’t have one needle. I started shaking the spools of thread to see if one was inside the spool and found one. I don’t know where they go either….
A thimble, and needles! Oh boy, my poor fingers are all full of scars and wounds because I keep misplacing my thimble, and my needles keep getting bent because I have to do acrobatics with my fingertips to avoid even more wounds… I don’t have a sewing machine, so I do it all by hand!
I never seem to have my tape measure handy when I need it!
Thread, thread and more thread! So many colors so little time!
I am always in need of thread. Seems when I start a new project I have to go buy thread because nothing I have is just the right color.
interfacing..I always forget to check to see if I have the right weight until I go to cut out the material…then it’s another trip to the store *lol*..
I’m always in need of sharp pins. Time after time they have to be drawn through some bees wax before sliding through material!
Good product
im always in need of more yarn and needles
My tape measure, seam gauge and yardstick are always missing! I have extras to try to combat this but sometimes I still can’t find anything to measure with!
i always need stabilizer
always thread.
Paper for paper piecing. Each block takes a sheet and copy paper is a poor substitute. Special paper is closer to a thin construction paper. Well that and printer ink for all the ideas I print and paper piecing patterns you need to print.
Never have enough thread and pins are never where I need them….when I need them.
Scissors and thread
Can’t keep the scissors sharp enough and not enough colors in thread
Needles, needles everywhere- where are they? Now I need a needle threader- can’t see for beans! and the wax for the thread- love it.
Thread! =) And pins!
Needles and thread. Either I drive 90 miles or order online. I think my needles are in hiding with the missing socks!
Thread!
Always need basic sewing needs, sharp small scissors and good sharp needles!!
I am always in need of needles. I now need needle threaders also.
I do a lot of zipper repairs on jeans for my family and friends in the neighborhood. So I use a lot of size 18 needles in my machine and break them. But i love to sew and make things. Sewing supplies are best are when you have a big supply on hand.
needles and pins
I always need needles of all sizes. I need them for when I’m sewing jeans and break one and I can’t seem to fine one when I’m hand sewing.
marking pencils, they seam to walk away after I use them.
I”m always looking for thr right color of thread, it seems like I never have the right color for my project even though I have lots of thread.
One can never have enough needles and sewing aids…..I adore notions!!
I am always in need of threads. It seems as though as soon as I get ready to start a new project, that is the thread I am missing. I am also always misplacing my scissors or they maybe growing legs and walking away (my husband I think is guilty). LOL So I keep buying new scissors because I don’t want to use them when I get them back from where ever they have been.
hand sewing needles,
machine needles – especially heavy duty ones for jeans,
seam gauges – they seem to vanish into thin air,
new blades for my rotary cutter,
marking supplies – chalk, pens, pencils, anything that works!
good sharp pins
a way to try to keep all this stuff organized!
I am always in need of needles, thread, marking items, and small scissors. They never seem to be around where and when I need them.
I have seam stop for after i serge a seam, it works real good, and sewing needles for my sewing machine, I am interested though in these sewing needles because they look interesting…. i don’t have many of those…
I always need needles. I can never find my needles when I need to do a quick repair job.
I am always needing needles. With 4 machines I can never seem to have enough.
I can never find regular needles just to sew a button on!!!
I always seem to need hand needles.
Always need new thread to match the colors of my projects! Seems like I can never have enough thread to find a match!
Somehow my scissors like to hide.
Interfacing!
I’m always in need of really good marking pens and marking supplies.
I use them at the sewing machine and while I’m hand sewing or doing needlepoint or cross stitch, so they have lots of hididng places. Never where I need them.
Sorry, meant to say seam ripper.
Pins, threads and for some odd reason I am always losing my tape measure.

Never seem to have the right interfacing for the project…have plenty of interfacing, just never what I need.
I know I’m not “out” of scissors but I’d realllike to remember where I set them down.
