Always have a pair of the sharpest, most pointy fabric shears to help with cutting each pattern perfectly!
Fabric Shears, 25cm
Keep a pair of general scissors seperate from your household so you can keep these solely for your fashion projects, great for cutting paper for your patterns.
Soft Grip General Purpose Scissors, 23cm
Good quality tape measure, but I'd advise to have multiple of these because they are never in the right place at the right time and you may loose them. So have a few, oh and buy this one its great quality!
Prym Tape Measure, 254cm
Dress makers pins, but make sure you have the extra long ones in and keep replacing them. Long ones grip better, hold in the fabric better and just better to handle overall
