Where do you find rotary cutter blades for less than $5.00? The last time I bought a single blade, it was over $6.00.
My favorite cheap sewing aid is a ruler from Office Max. It cost me less than $2.00 and is exactly 1 1/2 inches wide,
which is perfect for cutting strips for string quilts. Thread, sewing machine needles and measuring tape as already
suggested are good ideas. May I suggest two identical tapes so that they can be connected to make that center point
measure. I've been unable to find a ruller with -0- in the middle. Hobby Lobby didn't know what I was talking about.
