Today we got a HUGE rainstorm. It lasted for hours. I didn't realize my sewing room window was open and my container of rotary cutters was sitting in the window well along with a bunch of straight pins and safety pins. Two of my rotary cutters have new blades. When I realized the rain was coming in (as in two hours after the rain started), my basket was soaked and my blades were already rusting. I immediately wiped them down with a rag, along with my scissors that were in the basket. I also blotted at the pins. I am worried that my blades are ruined. I am worried that they will leave rust on my fabric, but I am not sure. I hate replacing the new blades. I am going to try them out on some scraps and hope for the best. Will pins rust? Should I just throw them out if they do? Probably no hope for them.
