    The 1/4" foot with sewing guide (flange) is my favorite. and truly accurate on my Bernina. For scrap piecing, my basic foot works okay, and I use the zipper foot when I need a narrow foot.

    I like JennyPenny's idea of pinwheels. If you make half of the pinwheels spin each direction, you can alternate them with four-patches of one brighter fabric and one "low volume".

    I never thought of using Crayola washable markers -- I'll give them a try!
