Count me in...yeah I was there with the sissors, pencils and cardboard templates. I used them about 10 years after
the rotary cutters come out. I would have to get my book down for a list...but it was a lot. I remember a 4" hand
pieced little basket and there were 6 or 7 triangles making
up the handle..still one of my favorites. There was a Kansas Troubles, fan quilt, dresden plate, and many more. I
don't do it anymore, except for pieces for applique but I
do use plastic now to make my templates instead of cardboard. I never minded it at all and have been tempted
at times to do it again. But the rotary is much more exact
as well as faster.
