[quote=Ducky Sounds so nice, DeeCee. Let me know how you like the pinking rotary cutter. I couldn't get mine to work right -- though, I'm fairly sure it was user error.[/quote]
I haven't tried it yet, but will give it a go today and let you know. Edit - Just went and tried it. It jammed up initially until I loosened the screw so it could roll more freely but then it was wonderful. I think it will be good for blocks that get a lot of handling like AOTH. Mine was an Olfa brand. |

Well the points on the block 22 ARE really teeny. I'm doing the 7" block, so couldn't make my petals fatter really. I'll be soo happy when I get to the outer blocks since they will be biggers ones based on my quilt design.
I've never used a pinking rotary but it does sound like a good idea. Maybe I'll pick up a pak of those blades. |

SweetDuck, you are so cute and funny, you make me want to go 'away', just so I can get the royal "Elle" treatment, lol! :lol: |

Oh that is a wonderful idea, I really didnīt know they made a rotary cutter with a different blade, must get one of those, will stop all the blocks from fraying like mad
