My worst purchase was a horseshoe shaped thing for free motion quilting, It had foam on the bottom that was supposed to grip the fabric, but it just slides.

Also Jacquard brand fabric sheets for printing. You can't see the directions until after you buy, as they are sealed inside the package. The fabric sheets have to be DRY CLEANED!!!?!! after you've printed on them. Who dry cleans a quilt?

Someone mentioned EQ7. I haven't used mine much, but it wasn't difficult to learn. The tutorials for ver 7 were much better than those for earlier versions.

Also Flynn frame. Haven't used that much either, but I wouldn't call it a waste yet. Used mostly for baby quilts, where it's not too difficult to get the quilt sandwiched. And I did have trouble with needles breaking. The 10' electrical conduit i bought to do king size quilts was a waste, unless i finally use it. I'm thinking more and more about QAYG, since I have trouble handling the bigger quilts anyway.
