The 3rd picture is my littlest one "Bentley" he lays on the table while I quilt. I know SPOILED.

I love how you do your leaves.... I must see if I can borrow someone's Accuquilt, as I am not looking forward to cutting out all those leaves again!

Gotta love Bentley! What a great quilting mascot you have!

Some of the LQS's have cutters in our area that you can rent for a very minimum in the store. It REALLY does cut down on the cutting time. Check out ebay or other auction sites for the accuquilt Go machine or the Accuquilt Baby machine. I got the Studio Cutter to start my cottage business here in our little town. You just cant believe the time it saves.
I can cut out a jelly roll of 40 + strips in under 10 minutes perfectly straight cuts, no elbows in the middle of the strip.
OK, done with the infomercial. LOL
If you need me to I would cut your leaves for you ( no charge)if you send the material on fusible web. I only have the maple leaf ( like the one in the second photo).

material girl, - when doing the plates it doesn't matter. However, I found that I really need to do the scant 1/4 seam when I am doing the actual blocks - Like Ohio Star or Louisanna....it does make a difference.
