How do you.....
I am working on a quilt now, that has a lot of blocks. Normally I would just cut the pieces and keep the pieces in separate piles and grab them as I piece them -- ie. one from the first pile, then grab one from the second pile and attach or I would just sew the same piece to the next piece for all the blocks in chain fashion.
But with this quilt. I need cuts from the same fabric (different size cuts) and multiple cuts of a different fabric (different size cuts) and cuts from a third fabric (multi cuts of different sizes).
There are multiple fabrics throughout the quilt blocks with no blocks being the same fabrics, The same size cuts throughout, but not the same fabric colors/designs.
I'm looking for a way to keep all of these separate so that I can do all of my cutting, then move to do all of the piecing and making of the blocks.
I've tried putting pieces of copy/letter size paper between each of the set of cuts for each block, but it is so flimsy and I'm having a hard time keeping the count straight. There are 120 blocks on this quilt.
I'm debating on getting some heavy card stock paper to put between each cut set for each block. But, I don't want to buy it, if it isn't going to work.
I'm looking for ideas - what do you do to keep cut sets separate if you need to keep different sets for each block?
