I really don't have anything special except for the basics but I couldn't live a day of quilting without my EQ7.

I don't have a favorite tool. Favorite feature - push button control on my Brother (second choice, automatic thread cutter). Wish list - more time to quilt and more space!

My favorites are: my creative grids and my brass seam ripper (the best one I have ever used) http://www.pamdamour.com/proportional-scale-clone.html

Favorite feature: auto cutter

Wish list: more creative grids

My favorite tool - needle-nose tweezers. I use to pull up my bobbin thread, to help match seams ... and so many other things. My favorite feature on my Juki F600 - I just love everything about it. My wish list - a dedicated sewing room, to improve my FMQ skills, and "maybe" a embroidery machine and/or a mid/long arm machine (probably only a mid-arm since I'll probably never have the space for a long arm and I don't want to sew in the basement).

On my wish list:

An 18 inch ruler made by Olfa Frosted Rulers. I don't think they make one.

The Olfa frosted rulers are my current favorite. I am not fond of the Creative Grids ones because I find them confusing and hard to read.

Sweet, I'm not the only Juki F600 here!!! Lol, in my quilting circles I am the only one and several people have never even heard of them.

My favorite quilting tool is my Kai thread snips. However, my new Stripology ruler is a close second. If only it were a bit wider. My favorite feature is the built in walking foot on the Pfaff. My wish list is a large desk/table that I can put my sewing machine into to make it flush.

Not sure of my favorite tool. I guess it depends on wt project I am working on. I do like my 8 1/2 x 24 ruler. I like the auto thread cutter on my machine. ahe thing I would like to have is more time. Work interfers with my sewing.

My favorite tool right now is the Hunter's Star ruler by Deb Tucker. Favorite feature on my Bernina is the Stitch Regulator.
