    The Cutting Gizmo. You set it to the left of your sewing machine. It has a razor blade inside of it and when you chain piece, you lay the pieces down on it and it cuts them apart. Voile!!

    I have the Cutting Gizmo too. How do you keep it from sliding and keep it in one place? The little stinker keeps skidding away on me.
    Got fabric?

    Love the clover clips but also love my turning mat it sure helps when cutting pieces that need to be turned and cut more than once.
    But my all time favorite is Quilt In A Days triangle square up ruler where you sq up with one cut. It is amazing.
