Yep, I can see how you could do that.
I have just finished the 6th of 7 rag quilts for my granddaughters and each one is different. The circle cutter I used for 3 of them, circles graduating from 2 1/2 in to 5.
It has certainly made my life easier.....BUT....I still maintain it takes practice. And I agree with everyone....it's a great tool.

You are correct, it is a great tool, and with a little practice anyone can use it! I love it!

I don't have a Boston, but thought perhaps I could use your method with my revolving mat.....not......
Maybe I'm not doing it right, but just couldnt coordinate the turning and the holding nd the pressing....whatever.
Or perhaps, I can't do it without a Boston. Just don't know. Will you do a tutorial?
