I have a brother he-120 and she is very finicky. She hates all the lint from pre-cut jelly rolls. It literally gums up the machine so bad that the needle freezes and the emergency thing activates. Does anyone else battle this with pre-cuts? How do you de-lint those dusty strips?

I haven't used mine yet! I like looking at the jelly rolls to much to use!

Me too! I have a couple of them on my shelve that look so pretty I can't seem to make myself open them :)

Oh how funny ! I thought I was the only one that likes to just look at jelly rolls...I have 3 and admire them every day...need the nerve to just jump in and do something with them. Saw in a flyer that Joanns is having labor day sale and fq's and other pre cuts are 50% off...hopefully I'll have another jelly roll to admire !

I have some older Moda Charm packs and I can't bring myself to use them! They sit on the shelf and I bring them out and flip through them everynow and then and then I put them back. Haven't found a pattern that deserves them yet!!!!

OMG we are a pitiful lot!! Believe me, this is the pot calling the kettle black.

I have used a couple of charm packs and jelly rolls. I just clean the bobbin area every hour or so and have not had a real lint problem. I do sneeze alot when sewing them.

The pre-cuts that I have seen lately at Joanne's have been of such poor quality that the 50% off still doesn't make them a bargain to me. They would be fine if you just want them for decoration, however.

LOL ....ditto to most all of the above statments.....I even buy charm pks to match my jelly rolls so the jelly rolls won't get lonesome ....I can't believe I just addmitted that..!!!!! But I know A lot of "understand".....LOL

:thumbup: yep, I understand. I was just looking for something and realized that I had 2 identical charm packs with the matching panel and the fat quarter bundle of an older Moda collection. OBVIOUSLY, I was gonna do something with them! (ps: I didn't even have them together! Charms were with other charms, panel with other panels and FQs with other FQs!!!)
