Basic ruler and rotary cutter. I saw my great Aunt Maude cut out pieces for a quilt in the 60s! I would NEVER quilt if I had to cut out all those half square triangles the old fashion way !!

Not sure its considered a tool but my portable cutting pad with ironing board on the reverse side. I use it at home on my kitchen counter, take it to the library where my group meets.

I'm with granniecheechee. Lol. Df fuels my fabric addiction and never has to change a diaper ever!!! Even trade for me lol.

I think in my rotary cutter is my fav. When I first started quilting I didn't have a rotary cutter and I have a hard enough time with straight lines with that and a ruler. Imagine those issues with scissors lol. Junk scissors at that.

I frequently say "My Computer". It has opened the world of quilting by supplying information on techniques, tools, patterns, and more knowledge than I could afford to purchase or store via books.
