Im new on here, of course. I was looking for a rotary cutter put by Eastman, it is a Kaicut 810. I love this rotary cutter but alas, I have worn it out. I have been sewing a long time. I use to make my girls their clothes, but as they got older, I quit sewing for a while. About 15 yrs ago, one of them wanted a red/white & blue quilt for Christmas. I said sure, I spent a fortune on a pattern book, fabric, etc. I drew each template, cut it out by hand, etc. I hated it. I decided if the good Lord let me finish it without destroying it, I would be thankful. Needless it say, I handquilted it, thats what my grandmama did, I thought thats what you do! well guess what I got hooked. I took a few classes bought a bunch of books and here I am. I like the old patterns, have a terrible time with matching colors. But I do it anyway. I could go on for hours but will not. I cant wait to read the post and learn new tips and tricks.

Greetings,
I am not good at matching colors, thats why we have Quilt Shops!! mine is great at helping me. as for places like Joanns I don't think they help any more unfortunatly if they did they might sell more.
good luck in your quilting.
