[quote=moonhoney2]I agonize on measuring and cutting. It takes me forever to set the fabric up for cutting. Am I putting too much importance on this?


Hi there, perhaps this will help, found this in a Mag.
When cutting multiple strips of the same size, to help your eye focus with all those lines on the ruler, place a piece of removable tape (the kind you use when painting a window) just slightly to the left (or right, if you are left handed) of the measurement line on the cutting ruler. Your eye goes directly to the correct cutting line.
Hope this helps you.
