I like gizmos! I'm always picking up something new to try it out. If I don't like it, I eventually pass it along to someone else. I have four friends who are my "students" that come over to learn quilting - I have offloaded a lot of duplicate and unused tools/gizmos on them!
Then for Christmas I put together goodie bags for each of them with some of my favorite little tools:
Purple Thang
Clover clips
Dritz purple measuring tape (I love it because it starts at 1 on each end, so you're always on the right end)
Blue water-erase pen
Tailor's chalk in red, white & blue
Little purple snip scissors from Connecting Threads (I LOVE those scissors)
