Favorite Sewing Machine Brand
I am a totally loyal customer to Babylock sewing machines. I sew on a Crafter's Choice (which is now the Tempo), Eclipse SX serger and an Ellure Plus embroidery Machine. I had one of those Costco Brother machines and I thought I would go nuts trying to make it work. When I upgraded with my crafter's choice, it was heaven.

Favorite Tools:
Skil Rotary Cutter
My husband gave me this for Christmas and I just love, love, love it! It cuts cardboard and linoleum and just about anything.
Fiskars Scissor Sharpener
I had a pair of scissors that I used for at least 20 years and I cut anything and everything with them, until it couldn't even cut construction paper; 4 swipes with this sharpener and they were as good as new!
Dremel Scroll Saw
This was a gift from my dad (if by gift you mean, ask to borrow it and never give it back). I use this every chance I get and I just love it. Recently I needed replacement blades so I went online to find them, I laughed out loud when I saw the picture of the new version of the saw.

Cool Shot Glue Gun
For years I used a high temp glue gun and burned off most of my fingerprints. Recently, I needed a new gun and decided to give the low temp a try. I have been plesently surprised. Not only did it come in my favorite color, but it is almost impossible to burn yourself, so this makes for a perfect tool for my kids to use. The bond is tight and I wish I had tried this sooner.
