Two hints for a higher surface to cut --- use your kitchen counter to place your cutting mat on --or if your table has four legs, get the bed raisers that they sell to raise the bed higher up. That's what we use at our quilting bee. At home I use the counter and it helps as I am 5'9".

I saw a tutorial on using Elmer school glue and put a in a bottle like you would your machine oil where very little came out. Then put the tiny bit of glue where you want to match all along the block then heat set with iron no steam. Her points came out looking beautiful

Really, I seen that yesterday and yes its something I want to try, maybe I will do a different block of hers, and make a quilt out of that. Sounds good to me.

I want to be good at it too.
