    Any of Quilters Select cutting mats and rulers. Also, I love Bloc Loc Rulers. I would love the new Oliso mini but I'm not going to pay $50. A Yazzi bag would be a treat.

    I cut mine up and made a quilt for my sister. She has my parent's bedroom set. I would need to look for the picture. I did have to line all of the fabric with interfacing. Pretty loose weave.

    If you go in at an angle, then go straight up. Use an Olfa cutter, not Martelli. Did you watch the You Tube for hint on how to use it?

    Tree Runner

    I finished my table runner in time for Christmas. You can't see the whole thing but there is a tree on both sides. It's a Cut Loose pattern. I made mine larger, 6.5 in blocks instead of 4.5 in.

    I don't have starch buildup anymore since I follow this method. Spray the wrong side of the fabric. Let it dry, never iron wet a little damp if you want but not wet. Iron on the right side.

    The weight is excellent use a can of whatever if you don't have anything else or a jar of sand, Quilter's select is excellent, Frosted Olfa are really good, suction handles help a lot.
