The items I have and use are the following: Dritz Quik Turner, Desk Needle Threader, Slotted Trimmer, Simple Folded Corners and the Log Cabin Trim tool. Keep the directions for all these products to refer back to when needed. The Quik Turner seems complicated until you read the directions, but I love the 3 different sizes. Desk Needle Threader works great, but, you put the thread into the slot and then the needle. I gently hold the thread to make sure it gets caught into the needle. Size of needle eye is important. There is a desk needle Threader that has 2 different slots for different size needles, but I can't remember the name of the company that puts it out. I just occasionally see it and when I do, I will buy one. The springs will eventually break and the thread is no longer usable. Slotted Trimmer is my favorite tool when making two or more half square triangles at once from for example when using charm packs etc. I like oversized blocks and then trim them down. With this tool, you trim, then press open the triangle square. There are slots that trim the dog ears also. It really makes accurate triangle squares. I have the Log Cabin Trim Tool, but, I have not used it yet. It's on my bucket list of quilts to make. I use photo copy fabric for all my labels. It's easy to add clip art that applies to the quilt and make really great labels. I have not used the photo fabric on a roll, though. Ink jet printers are a must and heat setting the labels once the ink has dried is a must. The photo fabric sheets I use are really hard to sew with a hand needle...ask me how I know this. So I put on a 1 1/2 " border around the label and then turn and fold part enough of the border to cover the seam line on the back mitering the corners. That give me a folded fabric edge to sew to the back of the quilt that is so much easier. I usually make the border from the backing fabric that I trim after quilting. It blend in with the backing letting the label shine. I have also learned that it is easier to sew the lower edge of the label to the quilt when adding my binding. Then I only have to tack down 3 sides. Also attach those 3 sides before the final stitching of the binding. Doug Leko's Simple Folded Corners is a really great tool. There are tutorials on line to show you how to use the ruler. I actually took a class from Doug and it was our primary tool to use that day. It's great for saving fabric and if you don't like to trim, then this is the tool for you. It also eliminates the dog ears ahead of time, so you don't have to trim those. You may have a little bit to trim if you sewing is off or you are a Type A person, but, it's a great tool. This was long, but it has been my experience with these items.
Thank you so very much for sharing!!! I'm glad to hear that the purchases I made are worthwhile! I will follow your instructions as I use each one. Thank you again!
You are welcome! Hope you are as happy as I have been with the products.
You had a lot of really helpful, suggestions and information however, it was difficult to read because you forgot to add paragraph breaks
You’re probably not going have time to go back in and edit your post to add those paragraph returns but maybe in the future because it would just make reading the information a lot easier
Great information. Thank you for sharing. (PS: Don’t worry about paragraph breaks.)

The Clearly Perfect Slotted Trimmer has been a game changer for me. Some say their blocks come out small, I have not had that problem.
Thanks so much - I'll keep that in mind when I test it. Thanks for watching!
I've had the small issue. I wonder if a group was flawed. But I did figure out I could use my Tucker Trimmer the same way with better accuracy.
I also had a problem with a very slight decrease. I put the line just a hair below the sew line (if I can see the thread line, I’m good). I also had to add medical tape to the back to prevent slippage. I’ve not had to do that to any other ruler. Just this one🧐
One tool for multiple sizes. I get the perfect size. I tried the Loc Bloc and can’t afford multiple sizes and uses more effort.
The needle threader is wonderful!!!! The BEST money I've ever spent!!!
That’s great to hear! Thank you!!!
The Clover one is the best. There are others that are not so good and/or frustrating.
Personally, I thread a bunch of needles at one time and just push them down the thread to use the first one.
The Clearly Perfect Slotted Trimmer is amazing. Makes that dreaded ‘squaring up’ duty less daunting. Best part is you square the HST before you iron - AWESOME!!
I'm so glad to hear that! Thanks so much for sharing. I'm excited to give it a try!
The quick turn tool is a must when making doll clothes. Especially helpful in turning lined bodice for American Girl dolls.
Great to know!!! Thanks for sharing and for watching!
The simple folded corner ruler is a game changer. I use it every single day. It stays on my cutting table. I love the log cabin ruler also.
Thanks so much for the input! Thanks for watching!
I use the Dritz turner. I love it!!!! It’s easy to use and easy to store. I bought it because I was making some cloth animals to add to an activity quilt for a grandbaby. I was able to turn legs, tails, etc. with great ease. I’ve since used it for many other projects.
Thanks so much for the tip and thanks for sharing!
Too funny. My sewing room is so disorganized and my goal for the New Year is to put up pegboards with all the hooks and baskets so I can display all my handy gadgets that I’ve purchased and haven’t used(forgot I have) and when working on something I see them, try using them. Can’t wait to hear the results of your tests with all the products!
Thank you and good luck! I always feel betting when I've done some organizing! Enjoy the process and thanks so much for watching and commenting!
I have at least 10 unopened products, especially rulers. Thank you for the video, I plan to open and use mine in 2024. I do have the slotted ruler and have used it. I remember I liked the way it worked.
I hear you!!! I buy them because I'm POSITIVE I'm going to use it...but unless I have a current project where I could use it, I forget about it . I need a drawer for new tools - so I make sure I try them before they get tucked away! Thanks for watching and thanks for commenting!
Quilt shows are the best place to see new tools for quilting … Demo are great to see and learn from the person showing what it is and how to use it. I’m like you .. I see it .. I love it .. I buy it … months later I pull it out and wonder “what was I thinking?” Some things eventually get used.. some go back in a drawer .. I’m a huge fan of tips and tricks. Thanks to you for sharing … I appreciate you for being a tester! 🧵
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
The Clearly Perfect Slotted Trimmer is excellent for , not only HSTs before pressing, but also for HG units before pressing. Jenny Dian with Missouri Star Quilt Company prefers this . Her daughter Natalie prefers the Bloc-Loc tools for trimming HSTs. It comes down to personal preference once these tools are used.
Thanks for the information and thanks for watching!
My brain is not working apparently what is an HG unit? Thank you
It’s Jenny Doan I think that’s how you spell it
I can't wait to see how well they work. 😊 I'm excited.❤
Thank you! I'll be posting the videos in 2024! Thank you so much for watching!
Thread Magic will help wih threading needles, smooths the thread fibers~
Thank you!
I'm excited to see you test out these tools/products. Thank you Mary! 😊
You're welcome! I'm excited to finally use them! I'll keep you posted! Thank you for watching and for commenting!
Great way to set resolutions for the new year! Look forward to your demos.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
I have the log cabin ruler. Loved it. The squares come out perfectly.
I'm so glad to hear that. I can't wait to try it!
I have used the Add an Eighth for years when constructing miniature blocks. The smaller allowance is perfect for 1/4" wide log cabin strips.
I've also used several variations of the Creative Grid log cabin rulers - regular, curved, and wonky. All result in perfectly sized blocks.
Thanks Kim!!! Great info!!!
Love my clearly perfect slotted trimmers a and b❤❤
So glad to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
The clearly perfect slotted ruler really does work.
Great to hear! !! Thank you and I'll definitely give it a try!!! Thanks for watching!
Can’t wait to see demos!
Thanks for watching!
Love the needle threader
Good to know! Thank you for commentig and for watching!
My husband ordered the Clover needle threader for me. IT is wonderful. Thank you for the information about this quilting tool.
You're so welcome! It really does work well - you're going to love it! Thanks for watching!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Clearly Slotted Trimmer!! Photo Paper is a great product to add photos to your quilts to really personalize!
Thanks so much for your feedback! And thanks for watching!
I use the Add a Quarter or Add an Eighth any time I paper piece. I took a class from Carol Doak on Craftsy several years ago in preparation to make a Storm At Sea quilt. She showed how to tape the top of the ruler (I used a piece of Gorilla tape almost as wide as the ruler) to the top right edge of the card stock piece that comes with it, aligning the ridge on the ruler with the edge of the card. That way you lift the ruler wit one hand, fold your paper back over the cardboard, flip the ruler back down tucking the ridge against the card and cut your seam allowance. It works great. I also use her paper (it's like the old newsprint reams of paper we had in school). The eighth ruler is great for her little card patterns or small blocks. I made my quilt and many other projects with it.. These have held up great- I've never had to redo the taping or card.
I also have the tube turners, still in the packaging, so I'll look forward to see how they work. I plan to make the apron after Christmas.
Diane
Thanks for sharing your tips! Thanks also for watching!
Testing quilting products is a great idea for a UA-cam series. I heartily recommend the Creative Grids Log Cabin rulers which produce accurate blocks. You will not be able to use it for quilt as you go because you trim the edges of the block after adding each round of logs. The Simple Folded Corners ruler can conserve fabric when cutting triangles but not when cutting the foundation squares. I recommend it for accuracy.
Thank you so much for all the tips!!! And thank you for watching - I appreciate your input!
I use this needle threader all the time. marvellous. Regards from New Zealand.
Thanks for joining us Mary!!! And thank you for the endorsement...AND for watching!
Can’t wait to c u trying these 10 products u purchased
I'm excited to give them a try! I have a few irons in the fire right now, but I'm ready to get started on these reviews! Thanks for watching!
I love the Clearly Slotted Trimmer ! I make a lot of half square triangles. It’s awesome!
That is good to know! Thank you for watching!
Love the Fritz turners! Game changer!
That's great to hear! Thanks for sharing!
I have used the clearly slotted trimmer, works great
So good to hear! Thank you for commenting and thank you for watching! I'll definitely give it a try!
I use my Add An Eighth ruler when paper piecing small patterns. Love it.
Great to hear! I look forward to tryint it!
I have about half of these products. Found the needle threader more cumbersome than just using an inexpensive wire one. The Log Cabin Ruler is a game changer. The blocks come out so perfect and even though it is an extra step, I find a much easier process for log cabin blocks. They are my favorite too! Looking forward to future videos on these products.
Thanks for sharing! I appreciate your review - and will keep that in mind when I test them!
Love the tube turner it made turning out straps so easy
I agree! Thanks for watching!
I’ve used a tube turner and loved it. I also use the desk needle threader; I love it - can’t do without it.
Good to know - thanks for the input!
I’ve used the slotted trimmers, I love them. I also use the desk needle threader, I like it. I’m going to check out the printer fabric, I could really use it for quilt labels
Thanks so much for your input! I appreciate your comments and thank you for watching! I will definitely give each one a try!
Love the slotted rulers, used it when making the Exploding Heart quilt, saved me hours of frustration getting the pieces to match!
Great tip! Thank you and thanks for watching!
Thank you Ann! I have the exploding heart pattern and hope to do it next year. This is good to know as I have the slotted trimmer rulers. Happy stitching 🧵🪡
I, too have the Exploding Heart pattern - just have t found exactly the fabric line I want as I love the original but thst fabric isn’t available. I know, I just get too concerned about being perfect😄😄😄
The Simple Folded Corners Rulers are my favorite of all my rulers! I use them for flying geese and for flippy corners all the time!
Thanks so much for your input!
I use the needle threader and thread 10 needles to put into the Clover Dome threaded needle case for my EPP. Love them both!!
Thank you for the tips!!!
I amso impressed that I do not have any of these 10 items, lord knows I have my share of items in my sewing roo.
Ha Ha!!! Yes - and I'm sure I have many of the items you have hidden away as well! :-) Thanks for watching and thanks for commenting!
I have used the Dritz turners and they work great…especially turning little straps for girls dresses!
YAY! I'm so excited to give them a try! Thanks for your input and thank you for watching!
I’m literally using the simply folded corners ruler right now! I use it all the time and almost never for folded corners. It is a wonderful trimming tool and to get nice cuts to prevent dog ears. Love this ruler! Probably my favorite one!
That's so great to kow! Thank you so much for sharing!
I think the folded corner ruler is one of the best ruler there is. I just love it.
I really did like it as well! Great tool! Thanks for commenting!
First time to see your channel, Mary. Thanks for the ideas. I look forward to your demos. Thanks also to everyone who offered useful comments. I don’t own even one of the products. I do love my Bloc-Loc for HSTs.
Welcome! And thanks for sharing!
I do truly enjoy your UA-cam channel-keep up the great work!! Thank you for reviewing these products-
Thank you so much for your kind words! I will look forward to testing out each one. Thanks so much for watching!
I love my Clearly Perfect Trimmers! And I love my log cabin trim tool
Great to know! Thanks for sharing!
The Clover threader as recommended it to me recently and it's just great!
Good to know! Thanks for sharing!
I have this dritz quick turn and love it❤❤👍👍👍i would definitely recommend it to anyone that works with tubes for handles or straps.
I also have the smaller fussy cutting templatesand love it it has an x you put on the center and cut around it to get the fussy block you want in your quilt
GREAT TIP!!! Thanks so much and thanks for watching!
Cleary slotted trimmer is awesome! I use mine a lot. The quick turns are great too.
So good to know! I will definitely give it a try! Thanks for watching!
Same! I love HST's and they come out beautifully squared with this ! I highly recommendI I love it and budgeted for it.
I love this ruler, so easy to use
I would to be able to buy the clearly perfect slotted ruler for HST's but I live in Australia. Have not been able to purchase one here. Looked on Etsy and it will cost me AU$80 by the time I pay postage and taxes. Have seen Jenny Doan demonstrate it and it looks awesome.
I’ve recently,purchased the Clearly,Perfect Slotted Trimmer - all 4 sizes - but haven’t had a chance to use them YET! I’ve been obsessed with HST lately and I’m always looking to find tools that will help me make them just the right size!!!
I have the quick turner & love it when making art dolls. Also have the needle threader, won it at a quilt retreat, best prize ever. Have the slotted hst ruler, have 2 sizes& use for trimming hst, really like it.
Thank you so much for commenting!
The desk needle threader works like a charm. I use it all the time.
Great to know!!! Thanks for watching and for sharing!
I’ve used the photo fabric and it worked great for a personalized bookcase quilt that had photo frames on some of the “shelves.” I was skeptical but pleased with the quality.
That is so good to hear!!! I'm very excited to try it! Thanks for watching!
How’s it look (ink) after a few washings?
I hope the photo fabric works for quilt labels! Can't wait to hear what you think.
I want to check this out, sounds interesting
I use the clearly perfect slotted trimmer all the time as well as the needle threader. The needle threader is a life saver for my hand quilting projects.
Thanks so much for sharing!
That's a great selection of products! I'm looking forward to watching the reviews when you have time to use them. I do like the desk needle threader but I wish it worked better with really fine needles.
That seems to be the general concensus with regard to the needle threader. I'll give it a try as well and let you know what I experience as well. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing. Interested in seeing your results.❤️
Yes - it's definitely on my list! Thanks for watching!
I use the needle threader all the time. Great product!
Thanks for the endorsement! And thanks for watching!
I have the desktop needle threader, and I love it. I do a lot of hand stitching and quilting and embroidery. It saves me a lot of time and aggravation that comes with threading lots of small eye needles. I also like that it has a thread cutter on it, too.
Thanks for the info! I'm excited to try it out! Thanks for watching!
I have the Creative Grids Folded Corner Clipper which is similar to the one you showed and I LOVE it!! No more drawing lines, no more figuring out where to sew; just use the ruler to cut the corners off both fabrics and sew your 1/4" seam by lining up the edges with your guide and you're done.
Interesting! I'll check that out! (I never turn down an opportunity to purchase a new ruler!)
I love the Creative Grid Folded Corner Clipper! I have both sizes. Use it to join binding stripes as well as borders!’
@joyfulandmerryquilting it has been a game changer for me! I really struggle with folded corners.
@nickyevans174 it's probably most loved ruler/notion. I haven't tried it with binding, but I can definitely see it being a huge help!
Good. to know. I want to get it to use on Lori Holt quilts because there are so many snow balls...Can't wait to see it in use!
Great idea for a video. Looking forward to seeing those products demonstrated. I have used a variety of photo fabric. Years ago I bought one on a roll like that and I could never get it to straighten out and go through my printer right. Since then I either buy the flat cut sheets OR I place a piece of cotton fabric on a page size label (on the sticky side) and run it through the ink jet. Works great. I use it to add pictures and text to my fabric projects.
Thanks so much for the ideas! Thanks for watching!
I just found this video, and I’m excited, some of these things I’ve been curious about myself. One of the items I also have, but have not yet used, but not because I forgot about it but I haven’t had anything I’ve had to turn. I will definitely be hunting out the videos where you use each of these items. Thank you.
Thanks - I'll be getting to those soon! I have a few irons in the fire right now, but it's on my list! Thanks for watching!
I love the log cabin duo tool! It was hard for me to see the round 4 marking, but that was easily solved by adding some washi tape. I have the folded corner tool, with the hope that it'll help me with the stitch and flip technique, though I still struggle with it using the tool. Maybe your demonstration will help me figure out how to use it better!
Thanks Carrie! I really appreciate your input and I'll do my best to come up with a helpful tutorial! Thanks for watching!
I love my desktop needle threader!
Great to hear! Thank you!
I have the threader - it is a mixed bag - depends on the needle if you are successful in threading
That's what I wondered. I'll give it a try and see if it works with what I use. Thank you for the input and thanks for watching!
Agree. If the needle hole is too small it doesn’t work
I've used the desk needle treader and it does work quite well depending on your needle!
Thank you! I'll give it a try!
I use the Bonnie Hunter brand folded corner ruler. It works great! No more drawing lines from corner to corner. The ruler lines up to cut the corner off leaving the 1/4” seam allowance. Just sew the fabrics together with your 1/4” foot and you are done. I found it helps to move my needle a couple thread widths outwards to the corner to allow for the pressing.
Thanks for the tip! I will keep that in mind!
Used the clearly perfect ruler and love it
Thanks for the info! And thanks for watching!
Clearly Perfect Slotted Trimmer. If you press seams open this product works great. But if you press seams to the dark side it doesn't take into account the turn of cloth. Not too bad on large HSTs but for small HSTs (< 3") it can be enough to make things a little off.
Thank you so much for the input!!! I really appreciate it and will definitely take that into consideration. Thank you!
I have the quick turn and it works great.
Great! Thanks for sharing!
I have the slotted trimmer rulers and love them. I made a quilt for my room with churn dash blocks and man did this ruler cut my time considerably.
I can see how that would be a benefit! Thanks so much for sharing!
I used this pattern design idea for a quilt for my granddaughter like the one behind you. I saw it on line, maybe here(!), and made it without pattern. It is coming out pretty well. I like yours
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
I use the add an eighth ruler for paper piecing small blocks. I made some small blocks using a Carol Doak book. Loved it. Helped made my blocks have less fabric in it and made them lay flat.
Perfect! Thanks for the tip! And thanks for watching!
I’ve used the Add 1/8 for FPP miniatures or very small blocks. I love it and I use DecoBob for the top thread and bobbin. I’ve had the needle threader since the 1990s and still use, very useful now that I’m in my 60s, but always used.
Great to know! Thank you for sharing!
Looking forward to your excellent innovative content. Happy Holidays!
Happy Holidays to you!!! Thank you for your kind words and for watching!
I have the simple folded corners ruler and have used it mainly with stitch and flip type piecing. It worked well especially when sewing small pieces on.
That is so good to know! I'm looking forward to trying it! Thanks for watching!
It works beautifully to sew binding strips. and finishing the binding before sewing to the back or front of the quilt.
My quick turn is wonderful! Easy to use..
Great to hear!!! Thank you for sharing - and for watching!
I have the log cabin 8” and the log cabin curve 8” rulers and love them!
Thanks for sharing!
I am so interested in the needle threader. Just started using the 6 inch log cabin loved the results
Yay!!! Thank you for your input! I'm excited for some fun tutorials in 2024!!!
I forgot I have that needle threader! I need to find it!!,
The Quick Turn tool is awesome! It inspired me to get some PVC piping pieces in increasing diameters, for turning larger size tubes. Great tool to have on hand. I' looking forward to seeing the other products demonstrated. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the tip!!!
@@joyfulandmerryquilting And I use a wooden dowel or chop sticks to help turn the tubes in the pvc piping. 😍
The company that makes the appliqué paper also makes English paper piecing shapes. They stay in, but go soft with time and/or washing.
Thank you! I really appreciate that information!!! Thanks for watching!
I had the Clover fabric folding pen for 8 months until I finally used it. It’s wonderful!
Great to know! Thank you!
I Have used the add an eighth rular it is very useful, I love it
Great to know!!! Thanks for sharing!
Desk needle threader is great!
I agree! A great product!
I have used the dritz turners and they work great!
Yay!!! Thanks for the positive input! I will definitely test those out for myself! Thanks for watching!
Love the tube turners, love the slotted trimmer, have the log cabin trimmer but haven’t tried it yet, use my folded corner trimmer use them all the time, want to try that fussy cutting squares looks game changing.
Thanks so much for your input! And thanks for watching!
Love clover desk needle threader, I use size 11 milliners needles and just couldn't thread them until I bought my clover desk needle threader
I bought the small log cabin block really to use up scraps, I have only used it a few times.
I love the clover soft touch thread pick.
Thanks so much for sharing your input! Thanks for watching!
Have and used quick turn and they work well
Thanks for sharing!
Liquid Vinyl - Love this stuff. Sewed up a lunch bag in cotton thread and put this on the lining. I've not had anything leak out.
Quick Turn - I got one years ago and use this all the time for turning out things
Add-An-Eighth - I can do the same thing with a regular ruler so no need for this in my case
Desk Needle Threader - got one many moons ago and didn't like it. I started using self-threading needles and now won't use regular ones.
Thank you so much for all the tips!!! And thank you for watching!
I use the Appliqué Paper all the time for lots of different applications. A great Aussie product!
Great to know! Thanks for sharing!
The turn tool works and make turning easy and fast...try it you will love it...❤
Yes - I love it! I demo-ed it in my LIVE video on February 21st if you'd like to take a look: ua-cam.com/video/3Utrbbs02Qw/v-deo.html
The needle threader is a must. I also use the thread cutter included with the threader to cut between chain pieced blocks. Hope this makes sense
Thanks so much for sharing and for watching!
I use the threader for smaller needles it works great with primitive gatherings binding needles.
I'm so glad to hear that!!! I will definitely give it a try! Thank you for watching and for sharing!!!
The creative grids log cabin tool is awesome. Highly recommend.
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
I absolutely use my quick turner.
Yes! I think it's a great tool! Thanks for watching!
I have THE CREATIVE GRID LOG CABIN in the 12 inch and I love it. For once my log cabin squares were right on and they fit together with great accuracy.
That is so good to know! I'm getting ready to review the products on our UA-cam Live sessions. I thank you for your feedback.
I use a dowel and a pvc pipe for turning. I use different sizes of pvc. Works great
Great tip! I THOUGHT about that! Glad to hear that it works! Great DIY idea!
@@joyfulandmerryquilting your welcome.
Quick turn works great
Thank you for the info!
i have one and it works judy great
Thanks for watching!
I use the needle threader all the time i would not be without it. Greetings from New Zealand.
WELCOME! WELCOME! WELCOME!!! Thanks for watching and thank you for the tip!
The Clover needle threader is awesome. Couldn’t be easier to thread the needle, especially the older my eyes get!
Yay - so happy to hear that. I've heard positive and negative comments. I'm looking forward to trying it!
Tried a number of these and the eyes of my needles seem to be too small so wasted lots of money.
I have several of these that I also have not used, so will be watching to see how well they work.
The Dritz quick turners work very well, especially if you baste one end closed and then just snip that little end off when it’s turned.
I have already tested several. If you check out the Daytime Live - that's where I have tried the Quick Turn, The Fussy Cutting rulers, The Needle Threader, The Slotted Trimmer, and the Add an Eighth Ruler so far. Thanks for watching!
The Tube Turner are a game changer in bag making, mine are from a different company but are looking the same. I am making many ByAnnie bags and can’t live without them.
Thanks for the input and thanks for watching!
