I love my Ikea bright lights-a bargain for $9.99! I also love really thin,sharp glass head pins. The Clover pins are great especially the 0.4 mm ones! They go through the fabric like butter and don't distort it. The Clover fork pins are wonderful too. I also like the Fons and Porter quarter and half square ruler. It seems every pattern needs flying geese and half square triangles. I hate trimming so using this ruler eliminates that! These are my favorite tools. Little things make me happy!
