Looks like we all have different favorites. Hopefully we' ve given you enough suggestions to get started and discover what your own favorites will be. Have fun on your new adventure. Keep us posted on how you're doing.

Please don't forget to have sticky notes nearby, just to remind yourself where you are! Also, I keep a box of zip top baggies nearby, mostly to keep things together if I am called away from my project. Have fun, and don't forget to keep on, keeping on!

For those who do their own quilting I found the greatest little tool for pulling those pesky threads back into the batting. It is called "Snag Magic" and the only place I found it was Nancy's Notions. I bought them for all my quilting group for Christmas

I have a bunch or 60 inch plastic measuring tapes all over, I find them very handy for measuring quilt tops, large lengths of fabric, etc.
I also like an after market box to store my feet in. It's made by Bernina, which I have and it holds their feet, extra bobbins, walking foot and other accessories really well, it's a small footprint on my sewing area, has several drawers. I got it on E-bay (or fleabay as DH Calls it).

With regard to starch, I advise using Mary Ellen's Best Press - it dries right away and never gets white flecks on your fabric. I know if I waited until it was dry
I could avoid the white flecks but it's just not in me to wait.
