I don't know about you, but when I'm going to start a quilt, I always do ALL my cutting, regardless of the size of the quilt in question. As I posted, I'm pattern testing for John of Quilt Dad. Today was spent getting ready to piece the quilt top over the next week or two.
This also shows that I have a cutting table now. Yesterday, my mother and I moved the last couple of furniture items from her house to my apartment and that allowed me to put this table into my sewing room (until yesterday it was what held my TV). I have a 24"x36" cutting mat covering all but an inch on the edge of the table top.

I also like to do all of the cutting. I then really have to watch my quarter (or scant quarter) inch seam allowance! A little off here, a little off there, and once you get to the borders you are off! If you have borders that is. I have a fall table runner that is proof of that. LOL
ReplyDeleteOh I cut it all up too!!! I get so excited! Then I can't quit in the middle cuz I have all those pieces that need to be sewn together! Can't wait to see what you are doing.
