Quick Quarter used to make 1/2 square triangles or 1/4.
A chopstick does just as well as anything else for corners and stuffing.
Standing across the room and/or taking off your glasses does pretty well at sorting light, medium, and dark, too.
My first gift to a new quilter would be a good basic instruction book.
