Tell me what sewing notion/tool you can't live without! 👇
Apparently a seam ripper. 😂 Clover.
I have the Dritz version of the magnetic seam guide. The magnet is so strong I use it as a stud finder, too! I hold it lightly in my hand and glide it around the wall until the magnet sticks itself to the wall, indicating there is a screw or nail from a stud in that place. I'm sure Dritz has never imagined their sewing tool was helping me hang a heavy picture or shelf! 😁
Oh wow!! That’s not going anywhere when on your machine!! 😀
My favorite tool is an organization container (like plastic bin) to hold all of my normally used tools. Always available to grab what I need knowing it’s there.
Oh that’s a great one! Thanks for sharing!
My favorite notion is the wonder clip. So nice to not get stuck by pins when hand binding! Love all you tips .
Oh I love wonder clips!! Multipurpose in the sewing room too!
You are an excellent teacher, it is enjoyable to listen & learn from you
I have most of those and agree with your assessment. One thing I would add is that I have a suction cup magnet that I put on my sewing machine. I keep my Karen Kay Buckley mini scissors (green handle) on it. My number one must have notion! Well I guess that’s two notions, but completely essential. Once you do this, you will not go back and will wonder how you managed before.
I love the suction cup idea! I’m going to have to try that!! Thanks for the tip!

I have a heavy-duty magnet and have found that putting a small piece of material under it when using on my plate helps prevent scratching my plate.
Also the suction cup magnet I use on all my machines to keep snips handy. 😊
I’ve seen that with the snips, I need to do that!! Thanks!!
I purchased the Martelli ergonomic rotary cutter after watching your video. I found it awkward to use for lengths of fabric (I couldn’t cut a straight line), but it’s great for piecing! You can hold it different ways depending upon the angle you’re cutting at, too. Thanks for another great video!
I’m so glad you like it! Once you get the hang of it, it’s great! Thanks for watching!!
I love all sewing notions, lols😂
Thank you very much. I needed this!
Awesome! Hope it was helpful!
Have torn right shoulder rotator cuff. This limits cutting even with my Martelli rotary cutter. Out of desperation, I ordered the AccuQuilt cutting system. It’s rather expensive but it’s that or no quilting 😬. I did not order the electric model ( too pricey) but rather the large “hand crank” model. It allows using either arm which is, unfortunately, exactly what I need.
I sincerely enjoy your videos. Very instructive and calming. 😊
I love the Accuquilt! I’m glad to hear it’s working for you!! Much more precise cuts for you too!
Seam ripper😊
Oh yes!!!
I just found your videos and I'm loving them. I've been quilting for years but sometimes things dont come together like they should. Love your tutorials .....keep 'em coming! Thank you so much
You are so welcome! Glad to hear!!
I LOVE the Quilter's Select rotary cutter and their rulers. Yes they are more expensive but I will tell you the rulers do not slip and the cutter is heavy and you do not have to place as much pressure3 on cutting as you do with other cutters.
I’ve never tried them, I’ll have to grab one! Thanks!
Thanks, I haven't tried them yet.
I bought one recently and must say that I don't like it at all. It just won't move for placement for me. I guess different strokes. It sits idle on my shelf. :(
Thanks as always for your tips! I am going to try the pins to help with seam shifting. I am also going to look into the circular rotating mat. I don’t have any personal favorites yet but I am on my way!♥️
Can’t wait to hear about your favs! I really believe the thinner pins make a huge difference!
Very good information! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video! I now am a fan of Creative Grids rulers having tried many others. I also like Studio 180 rulers and techniques for specific blocks. They're expensive but worth it. Wonder clips are also a must-have along with Clover seam rippers and tweezers!
Love my Creative Grids too!!! I should prob do a whole video about favorite rulers 🤣
@@sugarstitchesquiltco I would love your take on favorite creative grid rulers. I'm trying to invest in some and not sure where to start.
A favorite of mine is the Clover hot ruler. 1:02
… also, just about every gadget from Clover!
I too really like the Magic Comfort Grip Quilting pins (0.5mm)! I need to get more. I
They are great! I love the fine ones but the ones I have are short, I need some longer ones too!
@@sugarstitchesquiltco I got some longer ones but they are also thicker so they don't work quite as nicely when nesting seams together. They have pink grips.
Love these pins too and the extra fine are just perfect. Also love the other pins you show, I think they're Clover.
Mcguyver!!!
For sure!
I did enjoy this video. I had been looking for the pins with the easy grip after seeing several people use them. I ordered some after you gave the link. Thank you. I like others have a lot of the same notions you showed. My favorite is my Martello cutter because I’m left handed and have rheumatoid arthritis and it helps so much! My other favorite is the magnetic seam guide. Such a huge help! Have a great week. Happy quilting. 👩🌾💙🪡🧵
That’s great to hear!! I know you’ll love the pins! They are so handy!
I have been wondering about your rotary cutter. I find the typical one uncomfortable to use. I may look into this one.
It’s really comfortable, have to get used to using it but I also like that it feels safer. I’m a klutz!
How how are this reduced so very good just asked to liking that says and they're good video❤ did you do it so God pray God this is helping this helped me and this is super good nice that❤ help me this is frugal❤
