Marking on-the-Go!
 
We're all on-the-go it seems, and while many of us have figured out how to piece on-the-go, marking on-the-go is quite another matter. Roxanna Rickly, of Paris, Kentucky, had acquired a ClipcaseTM just before Getaway 2001, and your Newsletter Editor saw it as a great possibility for marking on-the-go. The ClipcaseTM by Dexas International. Inc. is a plastic clipboard with a hinged top and a roomy 9 x 12 x 1" compartment for sandpaper, fabric and templates. Three small sections are just right for a pencil and a quilter's quarter-inch guide, a Dream Seamer, and perhaps a small pad of Post-it notes (for sudden inspiration). There's a clip on the top so you can clip your sandpaper to the top, all of which, provides a nice rigid surface for working on that most portable surface of all-our lap! When you're through marking, just stow everything in the case, snap the handle shut and you are on your way! Look for your ClipcaseTM in the stationery aisle of your favorite discount store. It is a bargain at approximately $7.00!
