Beware the Fake Sasher Tools!

You may have seen some tools popping up lately that look like our PQW Sasher Tools. Unfortunately, these are fakes and have been copied from our original, genuine, high quality, trademarked Sasher Tools (bias maker, among other things).
Make sure you watch this video to see us compare our genuine, high quality PQW Sasher Tools against the fake tools.
Guess what?! The fake tools are terrible quality, melt when the iron is placed against them, aren't sized correctly, and don't do the job they say they do.
Don't get caught. The fake tools are cheap for a reason!
You can support our small Australian business by buying our original PQW Sasher Tools from our website - www.pqw.com.au .

Good on you Pauline for exposing these crooked people and protecting your hard earned tools. Shame on them and anyone looking for a cheap alternative. All are not created equal which you have so very well shown. Cheap is as cheap does. I would much rather pay the extra for quality, long lasting products, especially made in Australia, not cheap junk from overseas. I purchased mine from you a few years ago, they are very well used and look just as good now as they did when I purchased them.

Hi Susan, thank you. We appreciate your support. Hopefully we can get the word out far and wide, to stop people wasting their money on the fake tools.

Oh my goodness! I found a set of these Sasher binding tools in my sewing room and I have no idea where they came from. I always go to KZfaq and watch videos on how to use a tool and, lo and behold, I found this video! I had already seen a difference of the ones I have and those in another of your videos. I kept looking and found this video. I’ve never used these and will be tossing them in a bag going to the thrift store! Nothing would tick me off more if I tried using these and I had to fight with the binding to get it right. So sorry this has happened to you and I will be ordering yours. Bless you Pauline.

Thank you for this tutorial. Karma will come around & kick the impostors in the bum. It is disgraceful companies can do this sort of thing. I am really tired of people saying they buy online from overseas companies because they are cheaper. Well they get what they pay for. I have just come across your channel recently & I am compiling a list of tools I have fallen in love with. Incidentally, all of them!! Personally I am thrilled you are in Queensland where I live. I hope to visit next year, but in the mean time thank you Pauline for what you are doing. As a newbie to quilting I have learnt so much already from your tutorials. Keep up the great work & I hope to meet you personally one day.

Hi Pauline, I have had the honour of being able to watch your demonstrations in person at Australian Craft Shows in Toowoomba a number of times over the years. And purchased your Sasher Collection last year and some rulers just recently via your website. I am totally happy with my purchases. It is so sad to see others ripping off another company that has put all the hard work in. I recommend your products to fellow quilting friends and look forward to a class with you soon.

Hi Pauline, I just became acquainted with your products recently when I received an email promotion from my LQS for your book. I watched the video and got excited because this was just what I was looking for... an easy and beautiful way to quilt-as-you-go. I ordered the book which I received yesterday, and while I was waiting for it to come I searched online for the set of 10 sasher tools. I did find a ton of the copy cat tools that were so inexpensive it was very tempting to try them. However, I'm a tool girl. :) I love quality tools and I learned long ago that if you use crappy tools you will get crappy results. It's a waste of time and money AND it's not enjoyable! The copycat tools looked flimsy compared to yours and I wondered if they would melt and bend. This video confirmed exactly that. My PQW Sasher Tool collection should be here soon!

You can buy from our online store www.pqw.com.au and pit what you think you might like to purchase and see what the shipping cost would be. you can cancel the order if the shipping is way to expensive for you. So sorry we can not help or make it easier for you to purchase our wonderful quilting tools. Keep enjoying and learning from my KZfaq channel. Cheers Pauline

Pauline Rogers - Pauline's Quilters World, Well, I’m sorry this has happened to you. It happened to me too, on a smaller scale, some years ago. I handcrafted a unique product made with high quality materials, offered at a local craft fair. Everyone loved my stuff. But because it was high end, they didn’t have the money on them to purchase. At least, by the time they got to my booth! Needed to save up for the next year. The next year, bunches of other vendors had stolen my idea, made cheap hacks, and sold for less than half the price! And people were buying them up like hot cakes! It was something designed mostly for children, but also for collectors; and not something I could patent. It wasn’t a unique idea, but my expression of it was. And no one had offered anything, anywhere near like it for decades. Got my idea from an antique that had belonged to my grandmother. I think people figured that if it was for a kid, the cheap counterfeit was good enough. Yet, they’d spend well over a hundred dollars for plastic doll house! You get the idea. Well, there doesn’t seem to be much integrity in the market place anymore, sadly. 😕

hello Pauline.. funny thing just happened. I just placed a order for a set of these fake sasher tools and after watching your video raced and cancelled the order.!!! now I have a question. I want to make bag handles with the sashers. I use duck cloth also called cotton canvas for my bags and handles and am currently using a binding tool. but I end up with only a half inch strap. id like a large strap. 3/4 inch or 1 inch. will your set of 10 work for this? what would you recommend? I do not currently use any interfacing in my handles.

Hi Gretta, thank you for your support. The best set you can have for your bag straps is the set of 3 they are called Bag Straper set the sizes are 1" 11/2" and 2" finished sizes they have a wider opening for thicker fabric , they work superbly. you will find them on our website www.pqw.com.au
