I know a lot of the sewing abbreviations but when it gets to the ones people use to text message I get totally lost. If you don't find the one you are looking for just shout out. Someone will know what it means. Oh, there is another really good post I think you will like. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-40785-1.htm. It is about speciality cuts.
