Let's Boogie!
Now you see a spikey feather... now you don't! I found the coolest upgrade from a dry-erase board for training my brain to execute free motion quilting designs, it's called a Boogie Board; I love it! This is a super thin LCD writing tablet which has the outward appearance of an old-fashioned blackboard. The similarity ends there. A stylus comes with the board (and a clip to hold the two items securely together), it marks as easily and smoothly as writing on glass. Drawings erase cleanly and instantly with the press of a button; no ghost marks remain and no cloths needed like on a dry-erase, and not one trace of chalkdust like from a blackboard. I see lots of quilting design practice time in my future. I first saw one of these in a toy store, the greatest treasures always seem to be lurking there. Three years ago I posted here about a different toy-store find, the Etch-A-Sketch Freestyle, it is no longer made; apparently the obvious use for quilters wasn't made clear or it would still be selling like gangbusters! I was planning on putting a Boogie Board on my Santa list, but I just couldn't wait (my inclusion on the "nice" list wasn't ever in question, not to worry!). This paperless notepad could easily become my latest addiction item. .. doodlers beware, this sweet little board is close to perfection! Now, let's boogie!

Cool!
LOOK at that fantastic feather . . . wowsers!!! (and the Boogie Board is pretty awesome, too)
Oooooh, that looks like the bestest Christmas present ever! Ok, until the next techie gadget... :-) Very nice idea though. Wonder if Paul can get me one before he gets on a plane Sunday? Sure, there's plenty of time...lol
pretty cool!
Wow, you find the coolest things!
This would be on my list if DH hadn't just agreed to get me a featherweight for Christmas so I no longer have to lug my heavy machine to classes.
I will just have to save my pennies and buy my own, but I will definitely be looking for this!
Boogie on!! : )
A friend just told me about these last week - I'm so glad you posted about this use because I couldn't figure out what I might use one for and this is perfect! blessings, marlene
Sounds interesting!
Seems like a dreamy toy! I'm sure you'll enjoy it for a long time :)
