Hi,
My name is Jane and I live in Olympia, WA, the most wonderful place on earth!
I haven't made my first quilt yet. I'm working on a practice quilt with the help of a neighbor, and am signed up for classes but they don't start until October. So far, all I've done is spend a ton of money on quilting supplies and a brand new Viking Sapphire 850!!! I sure hope I like this hobby!
Anyway, I saw somewhere a gridded ironing mat that looked like it would come in pretty handy, but I can't find anything like it for sale online. I don't know if you "pros" think it's worthwhile to have the grid lines on an ironing mat. And if so, where I could find such a thing? I've checked Joann's, Walmart, my local quilt store and Target, but no luck. Whaddyathink?
Thanks for your advice and help!
