Basic Supplies - A Visual Guide

 
1 of 17

So Many Options

One of the joys of quilting is that the supplies needed can be as simple as scissors, needle, and thread, or more complex with specialty tools designed for a specific purpose. There are literally hundreds of items to choose from to make quilting tasks easier, more accurate, or more fun. Whether you’re a gadget-lover who wants every tool, or a minimalist looking to acquire the basics, knowing what the tools are, what to use them for, and why they’re useful is essential to quilting success. Once you've picked your fabrics and you're ready to start a quilting project, it's a good idea to collect the tools and materials you’ll need in one easy-to-access place.
