Default Does Anyone Else Have This Problem?

Howdy y'all. ☺

I have a problem that I've never seen discussed here before. Whenever I start a new quilt and I'm in the cutting process, I have to walk away after about 20 minutes or so because I start coughing my head off and/or sneezing. It seems that every miniscule piece of fiber that is released by the cutting process heads directly for my nose and throat! No other part of the quilting process affects me like this, so I can literally work on a quilt for hours without a problem once the cutting part is finished. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, have you found anything that helps? I love working on my quilts, but it gets frustrating to have such a slow start to every quilt I make! I find myself avoiding starting a new project because I know it's going to take me days just to get it to the point where I can start sewing! Any advice would be very much appreciated!
