Bias Tape Makers

Run your bias strips through one end of these shapers and they come out the other end as perfectly folded for you to slide under your iron to make your own perfectly folded bias tape in any solid color or print you want.

Small Binder Clips

You can buy plastic sewing clamps but I like these so much better and bonus - less plastic on the planet! This box is just a starter to prove they are better than sewing clips.

10" Bodkin

You will find yourself using this tool for so many things in addition to turning narrow tubes (such as button loops). Works great to fish a tuft of fluff out of the far reaches of your sewing machine.

Drawstring Threader

I used to dread fishing a drawstring or elastic through a long casing, but this tool makes it child's play. Also works great for turning long tubes, such as apron ties, right side out..

Hump Jumper

Sewists have suffered for too long with the nest of thread that tangles up the bottom of their seam every time they come to a thick bump. Just slip this Hump Jumper under your presser foot (from the back) over your fabric for smooth sailing all the way.

Magic Heat Resistant Pins

When you are pressing a seam you've carefully pinned in place, there's nothing more annoying than hitting a plastic pin head that melts into your fabric and on the bottom of your iron. These silicone head needles solve that problem - and they are so easy to grasp too.

Magnetic Seam Guide

Does trying to see the seam markings on your sewing machine throat plate make your eyes cross? This guide has just enough magnetic strength to keep it where you put it until you remove it. Turn it around to sew perfect curved seams too.

Seam Ripper

Fondly known by sewists everywhere as Jack the Ripper, because we spend so much time with this sharp fellow who teaches us patience.

Ironing Silicone Thimbles

If you've ever spent hours pressing 1/4" hems and guiding bias strips out of a bias maker, you know how much you are going to love protecting your fingers with these silicone thimbles. Also great for working with slippery fabric.

Multifunctional Sewing Stylus

Once you start using this tool, you will wonder how you ever managed without it! Creaser, point turner, and stylus to guide delicate or fluffy fabric through your machine. These are just some of the uses for this tool.

Thread Snippers

Snipping thread as you sew keeps your project looking professional and neat. I used to wear my snippers on a lariat, but I started noticing holes along the bottom of all of my T-shirts, so now I have it tethered to the side of my machine.

Serrated Tracing Wheel

The easiest way to transfer dart lines and other markings from your pattern to your fabric is with a tracing wheel and transfer paper. Also good for inscribing a fold on rustic linen or leather.

Red and White Transfer Paper

The most important part of Saral transfer paper is that it's wax free -so you won't end up pressing markings into your fabric. Use a tracing wheel or an empty ballpoint pen to trace a Sashiko design onto your cloth.

Tube Turners

I've actually found cardboard straws to make these tube turners because who needs more plastic straws in the world? This is such an ingenious method for what used to be one of the more annoying steps in sewing.

6" Sewing Gauge

Yes it's great for measuring hems and uniform spacing of buttons and tucks, but did you know you can use this gauge as a compass too?
