OOOOOOOOOOO!! I've go my cutting mat from Wally World. I had one of those "self healing" ones but didn't lay it flat or hang it. Now it's got a perm wave in it. I like the one I have now much better. It's not as flexible so I don't really worry about warping it.

If you can, get a 60mm cutter. Will let you cut more piece of fabric at a time. I've got one of those fancy ones with the ruler thingie attached. It's only at 45mm blade and I swear I have to keep changing the thing all the time.

Mr saddi picked me up a new board thier this week... a Taylor brand, it was about 1/2 as much as the offa ones, and they had the big 24x24 size I wanted. That and a ergonomic cutter were my birthday gifts (I love useful gifts).

I'm up for suggestions on what mats, rulers, blades, etc to buy. I'm buying a months worth of dog and cat food and cat litter with part of the card but then I'll have about 60 left on it from what I figured. A family I helped out a couple of years ago on a situation gave me the card and 5 bags of chicken feed.

And this is my new cutter, $12, my old one was an offa from '93 and the safety guard was well, unsafe.

I'll give it a try. But please be patient with me. This is my first "project" type swap.

Welcome! No problem we were all swap virgins at one time. The folks on here are wonderful and help you out in any way they can

So do I just pick a color or am I assigned a color?

And after everyone has sent in thier colors, we will receive 2 yards worth of strips back? One from everybody?

Pick a color/print, we're not fussy.

Yes you'll get back the same number you sent in.
