    Default Any favourite magnetic seam guides and seam rollers?

    I need both a magnetic seam guide and a seam roller. Any favourite brands?

    I love Lori Holt's Quick Press Seam Roller, I got mine from Fat Quarter Shop. I actually have 3 one in travel bag and at both my sewing areas. Also gifted 1 to my friend and she loves hers. Can't help with magnetic seam guide suggestions.

    I use a wallpaper seam roller from the hardware store. I've had it so many years that I can't remember the price, but I'm sure it was cheaper than those marketed to quilters.
    I have a magnetic seam guide. Don't use it because it moves easily when bumped. I guess the magnet isn't strong enough. Got it at JoAnns but I don't remember the brand.

    I have the plastic and wood seam roller. The heavy wood one does the best job. The handle is wood too. I bought it in the paint section of Walmart years ago. I have several magnetic guides that are strong. I have to really push to move them. Product Image

    Magnetic did not work for me. It is in a drawer collecting stray straight pins. I recently purchased a plastic guide with a rectangle cut out for the needle area on amazon. I like the line/guide leading up to the presser foot. It helps to line up seam before getting to the stitching.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VB53FBL...n_title_1&th=1

    I have this set. I use them on my industrial Juki - which has a metal body. They are VERY strong.

    I have the same magnetic seam guide that Onebyone showed. It works very well. My seam roller is one that I've had for years. I bought it at Sears Hardware when they were still around. It works great.
