Sewing & Craft Tools I Use Everyday

Originally posted: January 17, 2021

Never blame your tools right? Well, a basic set of quality craft tools for the job is sometimes exactly what makes all the difference to the outcome of a project. In fact, for many of my crafts, these tools or similar are required. Without some of these tools, my crafts couldn’t be completed.

This is my basic list, in no particular order and also my own personal opinion.

[table id=11 /]

For instance, I love my cricut products and without them I couldn’t really make many of the projects I do. I find also that just having the cutting machines there inspires me to look for new and different things to make. Also, I really like Cricut Design Space and love all the tools and gadgets that go along with these products.

Enjoy yourself and your craft tools

So, some craft tools are essential while some just, you know, make the project that much more easy and enjoyable. For me, I love the process of crafting and sewing almost as much as the finished product. Being assisted by some of the best tools on the market – or just the little things that make it enjoyable – adds to that gratification. I get a satisfaction out of a new, sharp blade in my rotary cutter a tightly spun and full bobbin. Maybe I’m weird that way. But I guess you should enjoy the journey too if it is a hobby worth exploring.

I plan to continue to update this list as necessary or as often as I realize I have a new favourite craft toys tools.
