What do I want for my birthday?

[VirtualPointyHat]

I know MN disapproves of adult birthdays, but people keep asking me what I want, and they are not appreciative of a nothing thank you, I have everything I need answer.

So I though I would ask you arts and crafts ladies if there are any gadgets I need?

I love to crochet, but wouldnt want anyone to buy me yarn etc as I like to pick my own. I have plently of storage for my stash, but would maybe like some better hooks if anyone can recommend any.

I'd love a better sewing machine for quilting, but that is way too expensive an option.

Any suggestions?

What about vouchers to put towards a sewing machine if there's nothing else you need. John Lewis or hobbycraft maybe.
Knitpro do crochet hooks but i havent used them so i can't say wether they are any good, i love their knitting needles though.

I had a Sissix Big Shot for Christmas and absolutely love it. Or what about a jelly roll or layer cake?

Ooh yes, I do have a big shot - which are your favourite dies for it?

Yarn swift?

Ball winder?

Quilting clips? I bought the small pack of ten of these, as I wasn't sure if they'd be any good - they are! I really wish I'd bought the big pack, as I use these instead of pins most of the time. I use them for much more than just quilting.

I have two of the knitpro hooks with the soft grip handles, they are very nice to use.

I have the HST and chevron shape quilting dies which are a godsend, and some other random embossing folders for paper. What I would love is some autumn leaf shapes that would cut through fabric.

KnitPro symfonie crochet hooks are divine to look at, gorgeous to handle and fab to crochet with too.

Tickets to The Handmade Fair? That's what I'm getting for my birthday. Tickets include 3 workshops/shows. No good if you're not local to Hampton Court though.
