So, I'm thinking "survival"...so I'd need thread (prob hand quilting thread for strength), large sharp scissors and a bolt of canvas...think I could mcgiver anyrhing with that stuff!!

I've only been quilting for a year, so I would HAVE to have my Clover seam ripper, sharp scissors and a good lamp. Plus sunscreen! That's it - I'd be content.

I would take my Gingher scissors, my neutral Aurifil thread and my Little House pins. I love handwork so would have plenty of projects to keep me busy.SueQ

I would need my quick trim ruler, my wonder clips and my seam ripper. I had never heard of the sew line pencil until these posts. Must investigate. Thanks for sharing.

#1. I would need my snips. Love having them handy to clip blocks and threads. #2. My Olfa cutter. Not sure how all the women of the past got along with out one! #3. And endless suply of fabric.And I would also need good dark chocolate and good coffee!

I would need some good quality sewing needles , some sharp scissors and some fabric so even without all the modern conveniences I could hand sew and be happy :-)

Jack the ripper could be used as a harpoon (I'm thinking big here!!) and thread for lassooing!

The patterns would keep me going with my sewing habit. The needle threader would make it easier on my eyes. And the pencil would make it so I could journal about all of it!

I old need my rotary cutter for slicing fabric and coconuts. My rotating mat can be used as a plate for fruit and my seam ripper. Thanks for the fun.

Definitely need light, and my rotary cutter and mat. Love to have dark chocolate and something good to listen to :-)

I have too many "favorites"! Rotary cutter, mat and ruler, of course...but Gingher scissors and snips, seam ripper, and enough charm packs to keep me busy between naps and the chocolate breaks!

Rotary cutter, rule, matt and I would like quilting books and magazines. Gotta dream.

I would take my seam ripper that is so sharp, it could cut up some dinner. And also some invisible thread, useful for fishing.

HI! I'D NEED MY SNIPS,MINI CHARMS+NEEDLE+THREAD, BESIDES CHOCOLATE!THANKS FOR SHARING![email protected]

I Love Those Pics!!I would bring my seam ripper and a needle and thread... I could at least sew a roof out of leaves for shelter..

A new project would keep my mind off the fact that I was stranded. Chocolate is the food of the Gods and could sustain me until help arrived.

I would bring fabric, hexagon templates and needle and thread and spend my time making hexies until help arrived.

I would take my seam ripper, to spear fish with. I would also take my photo guide to sewing, so I could learn how to sew banana and coconut tree leaves together to make a hut. And I would take my favorite Nancy Ziemann seam gauge, so that the raft I constructed would have perfect seams, and not fall apart on me while I was escaping the island.

Clover needle threader, my seam ripper, and steam a seam lite. Then the cabana boy needs to bring me diet pepsi, tea,chocolate.

Hey Paco & Gnomey: I would have to coose my reader glasses as the first indispensable notion. I can't do a thing without them. Next would be my Martelli rotary cutter because it makes fabric cutting so easy.

Disappearing pen would help with anything I couldn't handle!

My Kai scissors to help with breaking coconuts and spearing fish (closedvof course so as not to damage cutting edges.) Lots of Aurifil thread to sew and visit Gene for netting lessons! A iron with an Iron Shoe so I can press effortlessly. Lastly, a endless supply of Hersey Kisses served by my darling husband.

I would take all the above mentioned notions and a lawn chair and umbrella! Yes and chocolate but I would add the Warther's caramels!

I would take my rotary cutter, ruler and mini iron for pressing!

I would need my favorite rotary cutter and rulers and tons of Pepsi on ice.

Besides coffee I would need my mat that spins around. And chocolate too.

My favorite notion is my seam ripper. It has saved my sanity many times over and unlike my pointy scissors that I sometimes use to open a seam, my ripper never mistakenly grabs my fabric and cuts it! Thanks for a great giveaway.

I would bring my rotary cutter, mat and the multiple tool thingy that Alex Anderson makes -- stiletto, wooden press, seam ripper!

Of course, I'd need my rotary cutter and mat, but would also want a needle threader, and I can't quilt without my Grip & Stitch disks - can't leave home without them!

I would need my seam ripper and my big ruler, I don't know if I could survive without ALL of my gadgets! Yikes!
