I have been quilting for over 30 years and tried them all. Right now Creative Grids gets my $$ because of their integrated nonstick features, their clear thin lines and variety of rulers. I am slowly replacing all my others one at a time. For other templates, it depends on what is available. I have Omnigrid pieces, specialty templates, steel ones, etc.

I totally agree with sewingitalltogether. I seem to buy my templates when one is called for with the project I'm working on.

I have one eye to use when cutting and sewing so I use the creative grids; Eleanor burns site of Quilt in a Day gets my vote for ordering templates and rippers. Love their 60 degree ruler and O'Upfa short ruler with a 'lip' to hold it in place.

I'm not sure there is a "best" brand of templates. I have different brands and like each one for different reasons. My recent favorites are the Easy Angle and Companion Angle rulers for making HSTs and Flying Geese. Those come out very precise without having to trim - at least that is my experience.
