    My favorite tool is my Creative Grids ruler(s). Favorite feature is needle down on my Sapphire 875 Q. Top of wish list? Hands down an Innova Longarm Machine!

    I'll add that my favorite tool/feature for my 1965 Elna Supermatic are the Cams.

    One of my favorite's is my knee lifts on my Bernina and my Janome 11000! For my longarm my favorite thing that's really not a tool is the "diaper" I made to prevent the batting and quilt top from getting on the floor of my studio. Basically a sheet can be attached to the table and to a free rollar by whatever means you prefer. I used velco hook and loop strips to attach....mine is made of a slick material that nothing sticks to and I love it. Only once did my favorite kitty take a short cut through it and I boogy maned her and she's not done it again!

    All my Creative Grid rulers, The bobbin threader on my Viking 960Q, and top of my wish list is More fabric and pattern books. I got a bigger sewing room when we moved and that makes me a happy camper.

    Great tip! Thanks!

    I suppose my 6-1/2"24 ruler is my favorite tool but it's not very exciting. I'm also extremely fond of those little purple snip scissors from Connecting Threads, I probably own 10 of them, I keep them everywhere.

    Favorite feature: maybe built-in walking foot; that or the auto thread cutter button.

    Wish List: a longarm! And a bigger house so I have a place to PUT it!

    I'm easy to please

    I'm content with my rotary cutter, extra large mat and basic long ruler

    My favorite sewing machine feature is decorative stitching

    Can't really think of anything else I need-maybe a DSM with a needle threader someday
