Bad habits are hard to break...i have tried! i have to actually, stop and think to do it that way..!
I know it is the better way to measure and cut..
thanks for the compliment though! but i usually don't do anything to complicated!
I know what you mean. When I took the class, I was using the mat instead of the ruler to measure. And it is very hard to break the habit. After about 6 years, I now use the ruler!!
I don't mean to be a "stick in the mud" but it seems to me that if one would use the mat for all of the cutting, that would be uniform through the whole piece. Was it Mary Ellen who said, "It is YOUR measurement"?
