    Neither do we Irish. Rules are only there to be ignored or got round!

    I don't prewash and I use a dull cutter sometimes, on some things, like curved piecing I don't use a 1/4" seam allowance.

    But, my stuff turns out good enough for me.

    I quilt with my shoes off. I constantly hear quilters warn about using the rotary cutter or ironing sans footwear, but I can't wear shoes!

    I used to cut with the rotary blade towards me (easier to control). I was doing a demo in a guild class... almost gave 10 ladies heart attacks with 1 cut. I've since gotten out of that habit but purely because it's easier now to cut the "right" way.

    I also sometimes iron my blocks instead of pressing... gasp!
