    Seam ripper, seam ripper, seam ripper. Either I'm a perfectionist or a klutz. Or worse, both.

    I'm confused as well about the blue painters tape on the rulers.

    I love the Kwik Klip. It helps you close pins when pin basting. I would never be without it again!

    I love my 15 inch by 15 inch rotating cutting mat. It comes in handy when I need to make several cuts around a template. I also have a large press board that goes on top of a small folding table. It's nice to use the rotating cutting mat on top of it and still have room for pressing also. I also love my GO cutter. My other favorites are my thread catcher/pincushion and my purple thang.

    No, I don't get that either!

    I have a pair of very small operating room scissors that I can't live without...the blades are extremely fine and they are VERY useful for all kinds of "snipping"...
