My favorite sewing tool is a tiny little needle holder that helps you hold and insert a new needle into the correct crevice in the machine. It also has a threading tool on it but I only use the needle holder. It is my favorite tool because with severe arthritis in my hands and neck I have extreme difficulty doing this otherwise. Greatest little invention.

My ergonomic seam ripper. I tried to sharpen it when I wore it out but finally had to buy a new one.
My favorite sewing tool is my pressing tool. I inherited many of my Mom’s sewing tools. This old bone pressing tool is fabulous on pressing flat those tiny dolly seams at my sewing machine. Another plus side is that when I use it on the outside of dolly jeans, it not only presses but gives the seam a worn look.

“My favorite sewing tool is my hand sewing needles, because they never let me down and they let me do pretty much anything I want to when it comes to sewing!”
One of my favourite sewing tools is my long handled seam ripper. Not only do I use it for correcting the occasional oopsies while sewing I also use it as an extension of my fingers to hold flat a seam or fabric as it is about to pass under the sewing foot of my machine.
My ripper. I’m far from perfect and don’t know what I do without it when I make a mistake.
My favorite sewing tool is my Rowenta iron. Back in the Dark Ages, my Home-Ec teacher told us “the difference between a garment that looks handmade rather than homemade is pressing as you see” and she was right! I never skip quality pressing!
My favorite sewing tool is cutting mats. I have several in different sizes and colors for different types of projects, some for cutting fabrics and others for crafting. Some are huge for fashion sewing and others very small for doll clothes and miniature quilting. I love the spinning mats so much! I use them almost every day. I remember the days before cutting mats and am so grateful that they now exist. Along with rotary cutters, they are a huge time saver. I absolutely love them!
The sewing machine is the best!
My favorite sewing tool isn’t really a sewing tool at all. it’s a small, long handle flathead screwdriver. It works as a precision stiletto, point turner, and several other uses. I use it for something on every project.

“That purple thang”
I read that someone uses the end of a small paint brush to turn small straps inside out and it works very well!
My favorite sewing tool is a 6" ruler with a red slider to mark the length. This is a very old ruler from days gone by. It was made by Dritz but it doesn’t have the notches on the one side like they make nowadays. I have had that ruler since I started sewing at the age of 12 and still have it. I have looked high and low for a new one just like it have not had any luck. I use this ruler so often that I worry if anything happens to it I will be at a loss.
My favorite sewing tool is a plastic box with all sorts of repair items in it, my kids always ask me to bring and fix things.

I like my serger, it is so handy to use for sewing for the dolls!
My favorite sewing tool is a hand sewing needle. The first sewing item I learned to use. Thank you mom for teaching me so long ago.
It’s hard to pick one favorite! If I have to pick one, I’d say my magnetic pin holder. I can just grab one as needed and drop it back on when done. And if the kids take off all my pins so they can play with the magnet, one quick pass over the pins and they’re all picked up.
My favorite sewing tool is my 1/4 inch quilting presser foot.
My favorite sewing tool is my set of Fas-Turn tube turners. I have had them for YEARS and they work great for turning those tiny tubes used for doll clothing straps among other things.

My favorite sewing tool is…..my seam ripper. How many times you make a mistake and need that little tool to fix it.
My favorite sewing tool is my L-shaped sewing table. I love having my sewing machine on one side and my serger on the other. It has drawers down one side so I can store so many things I need when I’m sewing. It has most everything I need within reach when I set down to sew.

I think my favorite sewing tool is my ruler gauge with the marker ( don’t know the actual name), but it allows me to keep turning up of hems or whatever else I may need consistently even. I’d be lost without it. I do a lot of hand sewing on the doll clothes because I feel I have much better control than the sewing machine, especially for tight, small spaces and this ruler is so helpful.
My favorite sewing tools are my Rotary cutters and seam ripper.
My favorite sewing tool is my seam ripper. Useful in many ways.
My favorite sewing tool has no name. It’s a small dowel that my son sharpened to a dull point n its excellent to push out corners especially on small doll collars. Saves me so much time.
My favorite sewing tool is my electric bobbin winder..so quick to refill bobbins mid project, transfer matching thread when on the wrong size bobbin (because of course my machines don’t use the same size bobbin).
My favorite sewing tool is my needle threader – my eyesight just isn’t what it used to be.
My favorite sewing tool, oddly enough, is my computer. It holds all my patterns and Sewing with Cinnamon classes in one place. No need for extensive paper storage of patterns and my class videos are always there should I need a review.
My favorite sewing tool is my 32 piece presser foot set. It makes sewing anything much easier! I’m tackling things that I never would have before. Elastic is much easier to put on, trims, appliqués, sewing with knits. I’d be lost without it. Thank you for these wonderful giveaways! Happy Holidays!
