I bought several sizes of the metal bias tape makers...I never use them.

I second the June Taylor cutting mat. I will try to remember to bring it for the free table at our guild next year.

I love my June Taylor mats, I have actually worn one out. I have some rulers that I bought that I never ever use, they were on sale at Joann's and I thought they would be great. Nope.

I love my June Tailor cutting mat too. But the thing I don't use is the pounce pad with the white powder. messy, doesn't stay on, don't want to spray with hairspray.

Love my little purple thang..actually have three..In case I misplace, have another........since I'm now thinking of doing a crazy quilt, I have been looking at videos, websites...and saw creative grids has an 8" crazy quilt set of templates....the light went on! I bought that over a year ago, hung on my pegboard along with a "few" others. Bottom line for me is - it was useless until now, so I look at it as an investment.....but I must admit, while looking thru some of those templates...I wonder why? But who knows, maybe next time I'll be looking for it!

I do not use the bias tape makers for quilting but it is perfect for weaving with rags. I do not like fuzzy rugs and placemats so I use the bias tape maker to press the edges of the strips in before weaving with them. Amazing how we can adapt different tools to different art forms:)

I have a purple thing... and use it. but I would have to say it was the dresden plate template... i have never used taht thing nor do I plan on using it any time soon.

Several years ago, I bought a Magic Quilting Frame so I could hand quilt. That never happened and the box never got opened. It went to the thrift store this year. I hope somone was able to use it.

EQ7. I bought it years ago. My goal for next year is to learn it.

The fabric calculator is collecting dust in my sewing room.
