Cutting, cutting and more cutting!
This is what I have been doing when I can. Life has been crazy busy and I haven't had as much time as I have wanted to sew.
I am working on Jaybird Quilts' quilt Night Sky and loving all the solids! The quilt uses her Sidekick ruler; but, I figured out a way to cut quite a bit of it using my Studio cutter! I was able to cut all of the 3.5" strips, using my strip cutter; and, using the strip cutter again cut all the parallelograms on the right. That was easy peasy! I could figure out how to cut the triangles using the die cutter without quite a bit of waste so I used the ruler.
Sigh, when you are accustomed to die-cutting - rotary cutting takes forever and the rulers are so slippery! I used True Grips on the bottom of the ruler and that helped but wow cutting those triangles took forever and a day :-) And, I had to re-cut a couple of pieces because the ruler slipped and they were inaccurate. I know - I am spoiled by my Studio cutter ;-)
Oh well, now the cutting is complete and I can get to the sewing! I can't wait to see these colours come together!
