... a wealthy benefactor to pay all my bills so i could quit my soul-sucking dayjob and work on craft stuff all day!
... a HUGE studio space with lots of windows and a lovely view.
... a supply closet the size of my local michael's store, filled with everything i'd ever need.
(i figure when you wish, wish BIG!)
barring that, i wish i could manage my time a little better so i could squeeze more crafting into each day.

You took the words right out of my mouth! I asked for one last Xmas and haven't used it at all.
My wish is for a longer craft attention span. I tend to make really easy things because I get bored quickly, but I love the look of more involved crafts. I know I can do them, but I lose interest.

A solid plank of wood (instead of the hollow one I'm making do with now) on which to drill holes in things with my Dremel.
The inclination and energy to make the things I've been planning to make with my Dremel and all the supplies I've gathered for that purpose. |

- money for really scrumptious yarn
- and the ability to organize my house better so that I could enjoy the room with all my crafts (which are just piled on top of one another right now) - this seems to be a common theme here

...my own place with a special reserved room with lots of natural light for painting, sewing, crafting and ummm..dancing! it would have to be a fairly large room.
....lots of new and vintage patterns and enough closet space for wall to wall material and the clothes and things that i would make out of them...
...ahhhh, if only this could come true..... |

I wish I lived closer to my mum so she could teach me to sew - I could just call her up whenever I got stuck and it would be easy to visit and get help (I'm a visual learner :) )
Oh, and everything everyone else has said - money, time, space, light! |
