Yes, I'm getting ahead of myself, but I wanted to work on quilting today and couldn't do anything on my daughter's quilt since I don't want her to see it. Instead, I decided to cut fabric for my son's quilt.
I'm nearly done cutting. I have to do the solid strips (17 of them) and then it will be done. I figure it will take me about 30 minutes.
I came up with a rather clever idea for measuring while cutting. I wish I'd thought of it while cutting my daughter's quilt. I took a business card, drew a line on it at 2.75" (the width of my strips) and use that to measure the width while I cut instead of marking the fabric. It makes it go twice as fast, and it is just as accurate.
