Counter clockwise:
- Hand forged Utility scissors that I purchased in Amish country several years back--sharp!
- My workhorse for fabrics--and ONLY fabrics-- my 9" Fiskars Razor Edge
- 9" Pinking shears
- Utility scissors--I have several of these in various places around the house--use 'em for everything!
- Two small sewing basket pairs--one blue, one red handled, for snipping thread
- Curved end paper scissors for the grand kids
- and my prized pair of stork embroidery scissors--They belonged to my mother-in-law and were handed down to me! Yay!
Is this all, you say? Nope! I have other paper cutters, special scrap booking scissors, rotary cutters, etc. When fabric is your passion, a pair of scissors are your implement of choice!
What is your implement of choice?

One pair will never do the job...I have several as well :)
And you're smart for keeping your fabric scissors away from paper...paper will dull them very fast!
Yes, lots of scissors are a must. I love my stork scissors, they were a present from my sister. I also have a huge collection of brushes and pencils.
Lots of crochet hooks :-)
I always think I only have 2 and then I seem to find loads tucked away around the house :-)
Oooohhh! Lovely! So nice that you have the stork scissors!
love the post! I use needles... small ones for beading, and large curved ones for bookmaking!
Ohhh wonderful collection of scissors you have there!!
My tool of choice would definitely be my camera =P
