Default I love finding a great deal!

I got the Simplicity rotary cutting machine at Walmart today for $15! Its normally $59, so of course I got it LOL! I love tools and gadgets, my daddy always said having the right tool makes a job easier so I guess I got that from him.

It will make cutting binding much easier and its fun to use. They also had the tips for the binding tool on clearance and some fabrics. I got some nice AE Nathan and Mary Englebert for $1 a yard!


Off to find some patterns that are strip friendly!

I wonder why they didn't make it to cut the strips wider? It only cuts to 2 and 3/4 inches. It would really be nice if it would do up to 6 inches. I thought maybe I could still have it do that, like only cut one side, but you can't. It cuts like 2 sides at once type of thing.

Still a nifty little gadget, though.
