I’d say it’s my rotary cutter. I use it constantly for quick, clean results.

Among others – my small sewing snips. They have truly become an extension of my hand! I use them multiple times when sewing any project. They just don’t snip threads. Among other use: cutting corners off projects to turn r/s out; push out corners on squares or rectangles; grade seam allowances; snip my convex and concave seams; grade s/a on collars and other facings; act as a quick dual feed when sewing short quick seams; and the list goes on!
-
The notion I cannot sew without is my rotary cutter.

I would say my Bernina Sewing machine! I have a B560 and the Embroidery attachment.
I can live without the embroidery attachment/module, but I like that very much!
The only thing better than my B560 would be another Bernina, i.e. the B570 QE! -

This would be adorable in my sewing room!
-
I couldn’t live without my seam ripper!

I can’t imagine quilting without a rotary cutter. I bought my first one in the 80’s when I was primarily sewing garments and now as a quilter, it is the tool I depend on for accuracy from first cut of my fabrics to the final trim of the quilt as it comes off the longarm.
-
I couldn’t live without my left-handed sewing shears. Even the universal handed scissors aren’t as comfortable, & I have injured my thumb nerve using the right-handed ones!
-
-
There are several things at every machine/station: seam ripper (where do those seam rippers go?…to the lost land of socks?), Bamboo sticks/points/purple thang and small clip scissors. After that, it’s all subjective to project demands.

-
Sorry, I have to pick 2 – a good rotary cutter and my Stripology XL Ruler!!
-
My seam ripper Ha!
-
Unfortunately today my seam ripper has been my favorite tool. I hope tomorrow it’s just my rotary cutter!
-
The tool I would never sew without has to be my Purple Thang. It’s got the perfect pointy end for holding pieces straight as they go under the needle as well as poking corners out. PLUS the other end is 1/4″ for keeping me right on with my seams. Love it!
-
I agree with several previous post. I couldn’t live without my Bernina seam ripper they are my favorite, my curved handle rotary cutter. I can’t imagine sewing with cutting everything with scissor.
-
The one sewing notion I wouldn’t live without is my 3” x 18” ruler that has an all over 1/8” grid. It’s the perfect size, and the 1/8” grid gives me the precision I need and love.

Definitely my rotary cutter although my seam ripper is a close second.
-
Rotary cutter and cutting rulers. I would go crazy trimming and cutting out quilt pieces with scissors!

It is so hard to choose, but I have to say a small, sharp seam ripper. It’s bad enough that you make a mistake, it does’t have to be so hard to fix it. The Bernina seam ripper is perfect for the tight stitches.

My scissors…

Not sure this counts as a sewing notion but my mini iron for pressing seams as I am piecing is a must have for me.
-
My first thought was my Bernina! My thread nipper, seam ripper, and stiletto would be my top ones.
-
The Bernina seem ripper is the best. I have more than one. I think it’s so much better because of its size — the ripper itself see so thinner and better able to slide under stitches, and the handle seems easier to hold for close work.
-
I couldn’t live without my sharp pins, but my rotary cutter is a close second choice. It’s hard to pick only one! Thanks for this tutorial.
-
I use safety pins (for hold quilt sandwiches together) and mini clips (instead of straight pins).
-
Rotary cutter for sure is my favorite notion…started using one about five years ago and love it…it helps to have a cutting table at the ready…I’m so lucky now that I have a dedicated craft room! Cheers to empty nesting!

I can’t live without the always taken for granted most versatile size 80/12 sewing machine needles.
-
Much as I love my quilting tools, my seam ripper is used for more than ripping. I use an older, dull one as a stiletto at the machine, to hold small seams and folds at the iron, as a hera-type marker to mark small lines, and to help in removing foundation papers or the paper on stabilizers or bonding web.

As others have said, the rotary cutter(s) is the notion I could but wouldn’t want to live without. I do have several scissors of different sizes and purposes but the rotary cutter is so much faster.

I love my Bernina sewing machine. I can’t imagine having a day without the ability to fix, or make something for my family. I have made my family of 11’s entire wardrobe with my Bernina. Now I am able to embroidery on things for the grandkids and friends. Long before embroidery machines were available I would copy simple pictures from the kid’s school work and embroidery them on my old 830 by moving the hoop by hand. Life is much simplier now. Love Bernina–all 5 of my machines.
-
My seam ripper named Jack ???!

The one notion I am always reaching for is my ‘purple thang’. I use it to hold, push, poke, or pull threads or fabric one way or another, on or around my 570QE or my Q16. There’s one near each machine, the iron and the cutting station. Who would think something so little and simple would become so important!

I have to say it’s my marking pen. I use it for anything I’m making, garment sewing, quilting, embroidering, etc.

My rotary cutter and seam ripper
-
My must have sewing notion is a needle threader. Whether it’s the accessory for my Bernina machine needle or one of the many I have for my quilting and hand sewing needles, it’s become more and more important. The eyes of those needles seem to get smaller and smaller the older I get!
-
My Olaf rotary cutter and Olaf mat. Both are over thirty years old. It is hard to pick one thing. My Bernina sewing machine has been with
Me for over thirty years and my Rowenta iron about as long! -
The rulers for a specific project really aid in my accuracy!

iOS my walking foot considered a notion. Because I use it almost all the time! As far as a gadget or tool. I use my little purple thang during every project
-
I can’t live without my sewer’s awl. It is like having an extra hand at the sewing machine to tuck in edges, hold things steady, and keep fingers safe. It will be great to have it handy in my wall organizer.

I would not want to do without my wooden iron than a friends husband made for me. It is wonderful to press a small seam or edge, I have no room for an iron in my sewing room. The other tool I cannot do without is my seam ripper.

At the sewing machine, it’s foot 37. At my work table, I couldn’t be without my seam gauge–I use it for every project.

I could not go back to having only 1 sewing machine, now that I have two, I could not live without two machines.

-
The one thing I couldn’t do without — My purse-sized sketchbook/note pad. Everything starts from there.
-
My most frequently used notion is my rotary cutter with grid ruler. My Bernina stitch regulator is equally as important, but not every project is a quilt so it doesn’t get used quite as often.
-
I primarily sew garments. My daughter and I are both tall so I lengthen every pattern. I couldn’t live without my 2″x18″ clear gridded ruler. It is also great for getting pattern pieces laid out on grain.
-
Oh gosh…it’s really hard to pick just one! Besides my Berninas, I would say either my bottle of Best Press or my Sewline gluestick!
-
I can’t sew without my sewing scissors
-
There are so many…hard to just pick one…but I do love the convenience of my spring loaded snips. I have several…at my machine, at my Q20, on my cutting table and on my ironing station. Always have those long threads to keep under control.

I can’t live without my glue sticks, especially for putting binding onto quilts❤️

I can’t choose because it’s a tie between my rotary cutters, my Bernina Seam Ripper, and my curved scissors!
