I do allot of applique on my quilts, so one of the many gadgets I love is my Clover mini iron. I can't even begin to picture my fingers after all the burns I would get pressing those tiny seam allowances on petals, leaves, etc! I also couldn't hand quilt or hand applique without my OTT light!!! Oh, and my faithful Boxer dog, Rocky, sitting by my feet under my table or right next to my chair when at my machine or iron. It's amazing how he knows just where to park himself so he is always under foot! LOL

June Taylor Shape Cut ruler (along with my rotary cutter)
I feel like a mom being asked which of her children she loves best, I am a gadget junkie and love them all!

Mine's gotta be the rotary cutter.

My newest favorite gadget is a modification my DH made to my John Flynn quilting system. He replaced the PVC pipes the frame sits on with little tiny tables with casters. Now as I machine quilt my large quilts with this frame they just glide like silk!

I have so many favorites but lately I have been doing alot of binding so it would have to be the binding clips. They are so handy

My rotary cutter, it's my seam ripper, and my thread cutter. I can't live without it. I don't know how they use to quilt without it.

My little black sissor nippers. I panic if I misplace it.

I think my rotary cutter has to be my favorite. I can't imagine cutting all those strips. I would love to find a "Seam Cutter" like BKrenning talked about as I use my rotary cutter or a razor blade to rip out.
