I have been sewing/quilting for over 50 years and the best one I have come across one two (2) years that is the very best. It's ballance is wonderful in your hand. It is gold and slender. I gave $16 for it (I think) at our quilt show. I bought it from SchoolHouse Quilts. Her name is Brenda Arrowood and her web is:
