I'm not a beginner,but actually have very few things I couldn't do without.
A basic quilting book,rotary cutter & mat,cones of good thread & cone holder.Let me think...seam ripper,basic rulers.That's about it. All the rest is the results of "I want",rather than I need :-)Have a good machine, but any machine that works good is fine for piecing.
So guess I don't need anything.

What are some things you couldn't do without when you were a beginner or can't do without now?
I have just the basics:
6X24 acrylic ruler
45 mm rotary cutter
18X24 cutting mat (self-healing)
Seam Ripper
Spring Loaded snipper things (LOL like my expert term - used to make rag quilt)
Thanks!
