I'm getting a label made, but since I wanted black fabric I have to send in some. Figured it'd be the time to try the rotary cutter.

Watched YouTube videos. Ironed the heck out of the fabric. Tried to make sure the bottom edge was straight and the selvages matched. Couldn't find my acrylic ruler...ended up having to use my metal t-square. Cut into it...decided to make it a little bigger than what was asked for.

And I actually got a piece that's almost perfectly straight. If I line up one edge to a line on my mat the other side almost completely matches up with line. Almost. Once I move down the strip the edge just goes up to the line instead of covering it. So I guess that wasn't too bad for a first try...and with a t-square.

Where did that darn acrylic ruler go? I know I saw it this morning!
