My fav thing is the ripper holder. When I chain piece this makes cutting them apart so quickand easy. I have one that is from Fons and Porter that I keep in my sewing case for when I take my machine to class or to work at my Bee. At home I have an old inkpen holder that is weighted and the holder part is just the right size to hold a regular ripper. My friend just sticks her ripper int the hole of a larger thread spool and uses it that way.. But I like the weighed holder better.

My best tool is the 1/4inch sewing machine attachment. Now I have a stitch in the ditch one too. Haven't used it yet. But, will soon. Have tried not to buy something I don't need. I try and make do with other things around the house if I can. Hubby makes all my templets so that is a help. OH! and the seam ripper seems like some days I never put it down. :oops:

I don't know if you would call it a tool, but I splurged on a custom lucite extension table for my Bernina - I'm in heaven when I use it. I have the area underneath for my things (scissors, pins, etc.) But then there is also the adjustable height table for my Bernina, and my drawer unit under the table, and ........
