  16. I finally found the product - lighted tweezers -- but only because all who came before said that was what it was. I had a lighted seam ripper many years ago that I bought from Clothilde...they are long gone (both Clothilde and the seam ripper). Thank you everyone

  23. Could tell it's a light, but it was the other comments that pointed me to tweezers; now I want, no NEED a pair!

  24. Oh! It’s lighted tweezers! (I went to Tooltron... I could see that it had a light, so looked at lighted quilting supplies, and spotted it right away!). What a great idea for my aging eyes!

    1. I “found” you by following a comment Yvonne (Quilting Jetgirl) made about your help with hanging sleeves! I didn’t find anything specifically about that, but greatly enjoyed reading about your “XLV: The Inside Scoop” quilt process!! (That came up in a search for “hanging sleeve”...)
      You have a delightful talent for writing, Afton! I’m looking forward to reading more!)
      (I also now realize that the “secret” to Yvonne’s change of heart re hanging sleeves was just that nifty pressing ruler you gave her!)
      :-D
