ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
Would seam ripper be a little too honest? Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeletei love my walking foot, thanks for the generous giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy left-handed Gingher scissors. Best purchase ever, and worth every penny!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a seam ripper, I'm afraid :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE vintage stuff!! I'd have to go with my seam ripper. Don't know what I'd do without it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite sewing tool is the ruffler foot for my sewing machine. Also love fine tip scissors.

ReplyDeleteRotary cutter by a landslide!

Seam ripper. Every time I misplace my 4 seamrippers I cannot keep sewing-they just keep it all going.
ReplyDeletei love my seam ripper=great giveaway=thanks!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tools are a set: Cutter, mat & ruler. I can't cut straight with a pair of scissors to save my life ;)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tool.... I love my pattern weights. I made them from two giant washers and wrapped them in yarn so they're all pretty. I think I made 8 or 10 of them? Anyway, they are so awesome for cutting out, since I detest pinning!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway!
I've got to give some love to my embroidery hoops. So helpful. :)
ReplyDeleteI love my rotary cutter...I'd be lost without it. Thanks for sharing such a great giveaway prize!!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't live without my rotary cutter, but my new favorite thing right now is a little pair or stork scissors that I was gifted with. They are SO cute and SO useful! :D
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sewing supplies! My favorite sewing tool has to by my shape cut (with my rotary cutter). It makes cutting strips so easy!
ReplyDeleteSo. Many. Vintage. Sewing. Supplies. AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! I couldn't live without my pinking shears. I use them for EVERYTHING.
ReplyDeleteI've just started to sew so my favorite tool right now is my seam ripper -.-

If we go by most use, it's definitely my seam ripper!
ReplyDeleteseemommysew @gmailDOTcom
My favorite sewing tool is needle and thread but the most useful tools are ba far my...... HANDS!
ReplyDeleteSadly i have to say seam ripper. Most loved though are my smooth river rocks that I use as pattern weights, they are just so pretty. :)
ReplyDeletekirkwood0419(at)hotmail(dot)com
Lovely giveaway, thank you! Although it's not my favorite, I seem to bump into my seam ripper more times than I'd like. I invested in some only-for-fabric scissors not too long ago and love how dreamy they cut. Yay for tools that work nicely! info@samarrakhaja.com
ReplyDeleteooh - I love those strawberry tins.
ReplyDeleteI love my giant self-heal cutting mat - I use it for cutting fabric and all kinds of other crafts!
You had me at VINTAGE! I love rotary cutters and just broke 2 in the last few weeks. Yes, I have been cutting alot of fabric. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fun giveaway! My favorite sewing tool isn't really meant to be a sewing tool at all. It's a clear plastic ruler with a zero in the middle and inches going outward in both directions. It's marvelous for finding the middle of things. Unfortunately, it's only 12 inches long, but I love that thing!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the rotary cutter! Don't know how I ever made quilts before they came along.
ReplyDeleteOh, oh, oh! Look at all that vintage goodness!
ReplyDeletesntbosch(at)msn(dot)com
I love to use my rotary cutter.
ReplyDeleteI really like embroidery hoops-so useful!
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sewing supplies! My favorite sewing tool? I guess just my really lovely Gingher fabric scissors. I never realized how crappy my old cutting tools were until I coughed up and got a really nice set of scissors!
ReplyDeleteMy seam ripper has come in handy far too often, I must say.
ReplyDeletehandmadebytracie (at) gmail (dot) com
I have a seam guide that I screw into the bed of my sewing machine & it keeps my seam allowances correct. Wouldn't sew a quilt block without it (unless I'm paper-piecing). Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteooo, what fun! i love vintage sewing items, i collect them. my favorite sewing tool is a needle and thread , you can do anything with that.
ReplyDeleteOh sooo cool - I love your giveaway!! The humble overworked and much loved sewing machine is the best tool in my books!!!
ReplyDeleteFun! I have to say my rotary cutter, for ruler cutting, free-form cutting and thread trimming, I use it almost as much as my machine.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely my rotary cutter. I should have failed kindergarten for my lack of scissor skills.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'd have to say my seam ripper because I make many mistakes! I love vintage--this is a fun giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite sewing tool is slit up knife.
ReplyDeleteMy newest favorite tool is my Chaco liner -- the one with the chalk powder in the barrel and the little spiky wheeladoo thingy. :} Thanks for the chance to win!

Rotary cutter, seam ripper, sewing machine... all fabulous, another favourite is my GO! cutter - love, love, love it!
ReplyDeleteGreat vintage supplies! Thanks!
Favorite sewing tool is...unfortunately...my seam ripper, which I need much more often than I would like.
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sewing supplies and tools. This is a wonderful giveaway prize. My favorite tool these days is probably my new sewing machine. Is that cheating? I got a new machine about 4 months ago and we're still in that honeymoon period where it can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tool that I have is my rotary that my husband got me for Christmas! Not I am wanting a ruler to go with it so I can see through it!
ReplyDeleteI love vintage. My favorite tool would be a plain old needle and thread. I love sewing and cross stitching!!
ReplyDeleteThese goodies look great! Thanks for the opportunity! sneakfuzz at hotmail
ReplyDeleteGreat vintage stuff! My favorite tool is this little wooden roller used for paper piecing. It works great at "ironing" the little pieces down without have to get up and use a hot iron. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to win this to give to my amazing quilting teacher who I have been lucky enough to have for three classes now. She is amazing and has taught me soo much! My favorite tool besides my sewing machine is a seam ripper ; )

ReplyDeleteHow fun! I enjoy a good seam ripper, when needed!!! msagala1 at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteFavorite sewing tool is my rotary cutter and board. It's just so darn useful. I have also recently fallen in love with dressmaker's chalk; it works so much better than a pencil, which is what I used to use.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun collection of notions. I have been blessed to get things like that handed down to me from my Grandma and other friends - I also found a bunch once at a garage sale. I have been amazed at how fast I have used many of them up however. I would love to win.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love vintage sewing things!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tool...isn't really my favorite, but rather the one I think I use the most: my seam ripper! xo
Thanks so much for doing this giveaway! My Invisible zipper foot is probably my favorite tool at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sewing stuff! I have alot of wooden spools of thread that I have found at thrift stores. It's neat to see the prices and the different companies. My favorite sewing tool at the moment is a ruler. It's 6 1/2" x 2 1/2". I like that 6 1/2" is small enough to fit in my sewing kit and the 2 1/2" wide is great and more convenient than just 1".
ReplyDeleteThank you for your giveaway and a chance to win.

Chopsticks! Seriously, I always have a chopstick next to my sewing machine. It's great to help nudge fabric, move thread, turn corners and tubs, etc.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite sewing tool is probably my sewing machine. Too obvious? I'd be lost without it! :)

ReplyDeleteI use my father in law's sewing machine. It is from the late 40's and sews perfectly.
