Shopping List!!

I've started to get back into sewing and I realized I need new supplies!! This is my shopping list so far:

1. Fabric
2. Measuring tape
3. Chalk (for the fabric, ya know?)
4. Trimmings; lace, ribbon
5. Thread

Is there anything else I'm going to need? Anything I need to add? Thanks in advance!!

dont forget some good quality scissors, you dont want to get yucky ones that mess up the fabric when you cut it.

oh maybe one of those long metal rulers to get a perfect straight line with the chalk since the measuring tape will move on ya.
