I had extensive dental work done yesterday and I wanted to take only half a pain pill (so that it hopefully wouldn't interfere with my sewing time, dream on girl :cry: ) When I couldn't find a straight edge razor I looked over at my rotary cutter & what do you know? It cut the pill easier than any pill splitter or razor blade I've ever used!

I thought maybe you had found a quilting use for a pill splitter! Hope you are feeling better soon.
