Gotta have one. Has anyone found them at Jo Annn's? Sounds like something to buy with a coupon.

I found the site. It comes from Midwestern Solutions, Milwaukee, WI 53202. Phone number is 414-975-7142. I see it is also available at Target. I paid about $5 more for mine.

This is Great! awhile back someone posted how to remore threads with a Eraser the same way! it works Too, Use the White ones (erasers) But this is Nice to have it All-in-one!!
PS: Erasers Will Also remove the threads that are caught in your cutting mats just rub across the cuts!

And where can I purchase one of these? I have not seen one in any of my quilt shops.
And would you belive I was in Portland last weekend and did not know there was a quilt show. Pooh!

I have another 3 that came with my machines but they aren't in use. I did buy a pack of 3 at a quilt show once but they were hopeless. They were flat handle ones. They were too thick to fit under a stitch. They sit in a cup with marking pens etc.
Same as all these fancy rulers the makers tell us we need. Our ordinary rulers with degrees marked on them will all do the same job. Also a lot of expensive templates can be made at home. Old xrays make great templates. Just clean the ink off with bleach.
This is just my personal opinion so please don't take offense.
I agree.

It's why quilting is a billion dollar (or so) business now. Fuel the economy - buy stuff!

I myself save my bits of money for fabric and saving for a sweet sixteen!
