This is a great place for learning and sharing, hope you have a good time. I don't come from a quilting background so am self-taught and I started before there were rotary cutters. I'm still learning all the time, and if I can share a hint or a trick so that someone else doesn't need to learn it the hard way, I'm all for that!
Remember to always have fun, the rest will come.
