That One Notion You Didn't Know You Needed (But Totally Do)


Some tools just *sneak* into your routine and suddenly you can’t live without them. For me, that’s the humble seam roller.

🔧 What’s a seam roller?
It’s a small, hand-held roller (usually wood or plastic) that presses seams open without heat. Perfect for paper piecing, quick pressing on the go, or when you just don’t want to fire up the iron.

💡 Why I love it:
- Great for pressing seams flat before hitting them with the iron
- Portable and perfect for retreats or classes
- Saves time and wrist strain

It’s one of those “why didn’t I use this sooner” tools — and now I won’t sew without it. Got a surprising fave in your toolbox?
