My sister got me into quilting back in 1996 when I retired from teaching. She lived 300 miles from me, but would send me goodies to try out. One was a rotary cutter sharpener. I don't know who makes it, but it is two circle pieces that the blade fits into & then you twist the two pices back & forth & the sandpaper surfaces sharpen & clean the blade. I guess it really works as I seldom changed blades in my cutter.

Now, I have a project with a deadline, and I can't cut fabric! I lost my spare blades, to make it worse, and while I am getting some from ebay, I think they are shipping parcel...
In the meantime, what can I do?
