I'm with you on owning lots of cool stuff but not knowing how to properly use it. :D
I'd like to take a class on how to accurately measure with all these fancy rulers. I've got the big olfa mat, the fancy ruler, and a sharp cutter but still...somehow....it doesn't come out the way it's supposed to.
Heck, I need a basic class on how to match up selvages and when to cut on the bias, etc. =)
