Default I look after myself
I broke my (left) hand. I would like cut, sew, but my ruler slip on the fabric. I helped myself: I stuck some self-adhesive Velcro (on the back side!).So, now I can easily cut ![ATTACH=CONFIG]324399[/ATTACH]

Quilters have to be the most adaptable people in this world! Good job, and glad you can cut again!
