How about sewing machine needles, decorative thread, chalk markers, snacks, fq's, stabilizer? Just a few suggestions, not sure what you are looking for exactly but I'm always happy to received items like this.

| If I were getting one of your sewing bags, I'd want new thread, and sewing needles - either for the regular sewing machine or the serger - I'm always breaking my needles! |
