We talk a lot about other favorite tools but I want to know if any of you have found a real winner that you will keep and use for a long time?
I have several Clover ones. But then a friend was teaching us to applique and she gave us a tiny one from Tooltron. They run about a dollar and are like a razor. Have to be very careful with this one as you can cut right through your fabric...but it is just the bomb! I have also bought ones similar to this in the LQS and places like Joanns.But nothing compares to the Tooltron ones! Jus Google Tooltron and you will find it.
