O.K. So What's the Steady Betty. You lfolks have access to quilt shops and quilt shows that you get to see the latest things. I'm so far away from a quilt shop and wayyyy to far from quilt shows, so I never know what all is out there. I have found some fantastic stuff from reading this board.
Sorry Granny, but I just wanted to know about this.
I think definitely a variety of rulers especially the square up rulers. I love my different sizes of square rulers, they help so much when making various size blocks, but do carry some of the larger sizes, at least a 12", many places carry 8" and smaller. Seam rippers, rotary cutters, a large selection of blades and mats. Lots of good books for patterns and teaching quilting to newbies.
