Right now i am totally in love with my new walking foot for my sewing machine. It is fantastic!
I have so many gadgets I enjoy…my crochet hooks, my cutting mats, my glue gun…oh…I finally broke down and bought a bodkin, after years of using a safety pin to pull things through (ie elastic and ties) and used it for the first time last week…wow. So glad to have it now.
My Awl is my favorite gadget. I use it every time I sew to keep the material straight as it feeds through the machine. I do a lot of small work like fabric postcards so I have lots of little pieces to hold down.
i cant decide i love my classic glue gun, rotary cutter and mats!!But of all i would have to say it is my sewing/embroidering machine
Since I found my cutting wheel and mat, I can’t be stopped! Would LOVE the bias tape machine! This would help make dresses for my grandbabies!!
