Being self taught, I'm watching a lot of videos and reading tons of quilting blogs. I'm seeing so many things I've come here to buy and end up buying from Amazon. But I'm new to M* so I don't know if they're primarily selling fabric or if their notions are still growing. While I'm not keen on buying unnecessary items, any tool that makes quilting easier is on my shopping list.

Clover Iron Finger: got one, it's amazing and saves your fingers from burning when ironing small pieces, but it does so much more, wouldn't do without it now (hint: it's also excellent for beating away people trying to bother you when you're quilting!)

Hera marker: got one last week and haven't put it down yet! I've used it to crease bias tape instead of ironing, marked triangles for matching economy blocks, and heck it's all I can do to stop myself making patterns on my morning toast with it!

Aunt Becky: thimble I'm looking at for when I try hand quilting, the rhythm of stitching with it is intriguing

Tailors clapper: I'm not ready to buy, but I can barely find it for sale anywhere. Nancy Zieman used it in a video showing how it makes super flat show quality seams while pressing. Frankly I'd like a slightly smaller one that's more manageable for quilt blocks instead of pants and jackets with the M* duckling wood burned on the top (any woodworkers in Hamilton?)
