Too funny!! When I started quilting, there were no CUTTING MATS!! :lol:
Amen to that!! I made my first quilt in 1981 and I hated cutting everything with scissors and using cardboard templates. In fact, I disliked it so much that I did not quilt again until 1999!! Love those cutting mats...........and rotary cutters, and rulers, and everything else that makes the job so much fun now!!!!
Started with scissors only back in the early 1970's. Can you imagine our grandmothers? Mine was born in 1899 & all she ever used were scissors.
