Today I decided to go and use the new cutting machine Trish has at Sew Many Ideas. Yee-ha!THAT is a great thing! I needed to cut 165 3 1/2" squares for the Honeycomb quilt I've started cutting. The other pieces are all scraps so I'm cutting those at home,but the background square is all one color. So I took 1.6 yards with me, wound up with 191 squares in 15 minutes, for a total cost of $5.00 plus tax. I'm into saving time wherever I can in order to make more quilts!
If you decide to use a cutting machine, call beforehand to see if they have the template size you need and if you need to cut your fabric into strips before you go.
