I am going to be doing the "quilt as you go method" for my first one since it's going to be a large quilt!
Seam ripper and at least one dark and one light marking pencil -------------be darned sure they are washable. I also like painters tape to mark a long 1/4" line on machine-----------sometimes to stabilize bias cuts.
