My most used stuff:

clover chaco liner
quilt gloves w/ the index and thumb tips cut off
seam ripper (of course) I'll have to look for the square ones
the angler (now have clearly perfect angles-same thing)
fiskars craft rotary cutter (ruler with an attached blade)
mini ironing board-it's actually a wooden tv tray that I added padding to to make a little one
travel iron-I have a rowenta one that is so much nicer than dragging out my big iron which practically covers my entire mini ironing board
clover pins-these are the best ones I've ever used
fiskars cutting mats and rotary cutter-I've tried other brands of cutters but love my fiskars (I have 3)
plastic rulers-I have a bunch and multiples of the ones I use most
thread snippers from joanns-those cheapy ones that spring open
gingher scissors-dh bought them for me and he picked out the ones with the gold handles.
Hemostat-I bought it at a flea market

ones I never use-not really useless but I never use them:
chalk pouncer tool
too many templates I'll probably never use
clover mini iron

as for a regular iron I'm happy with my black & decker digital advantage. I did some research before I bought it and thought the rowentas got too many negative reviews for the price. I only paid $40 for the B&D.
