Great idea...I need a system to keep track of needles better!

This is great. I know I have more favrotites but these are first. ANd I love the Sewing machine lifter my DH made me. Makes it so much better n my back not to have to lean up so far. Thank you.

I was going to mention the june taylor shape cutter, but someone already did. I have trouble cutting my strips, this has helped me and is so fast. I love the darn thing.

My favorite tools now are
1. Go die cut machine
2. Simplicity Bias Tape Machine
3. EQ7 and Foundation Factory
4. Inklingo
I really don't get out much!!! Can you tell me what #4 is? I even looked online and I just don't "get it" - how do you use them? Thanks. :?

Have one, mine didn't stay any sharper than the Olfa or Fiskars' and the blades are very expensive over 10$ each at JoAnns

I use glue sticks to hold my binding and can sew both sides with one stitching. I've only done this on lap quilts sew far!

A small size knitting needle makes a great stilleto!
