    mom and I share the cutter ......... it stays at her house which is about 30 ft from my front door. LOL We converted their garage into an apartment for me when she got sick.

    Yes now that we finally have it out of the closet is was stored in, will be much easier to use. LOL

    I have pressed about 50 FQ's today, cut them down to 13 in squares to make it easier in the accucutter. Fun part is putting all te sets together after layering the blocks.

    I can wait to see what comes in for this charming quilt addiction.

    I started going through my stash, and ironed most of what I need.. Now I have to wash the floor, as it is a sticky mess from the starch.. Since I use the kitchen counter to iron on, it isn't a problem.. I look forward to cutting the squares, as I find it relaxing in front of the t.v. The only problem I come up with, is since I am in a one bedroom apartment, the place is starting to look like a grenade went off in a fabric store, but I have to admit the place is pretty colorful...

    I have the best little grandson. I watched him on Monday and he took two long naps so grandma could cut squares. Now just have to package them up and send out.

    Everyone is so ambitious! I may have to make more than 9 sets out of sheer guilt lol! I know how moonrise feels - we have a puppy also and it takes over your whole life! He likes to lay on my feet when I sew and pretend he is a shark. Any fabric that swims in his vicinity always gets a nibble. He is so handsome though that I just can't help but laugh.

    Now Sheri you know we are close enough that we could always plan a cutting day. LOL If you ever want to come over and use the cutter....we could have a cutting party.

    It would be cheaper to drive to Dallas than to set myself up with a new toy.
