Salvaging Fabric

You may recall all 5" inch 30's print fabrics I cut with the GO cutter that were inaccurate. Well, I re-cut it all with Pat Yamin's small 3" inch tumbler template using my Brooklyn revolver. All those those cute fabrics are turning---literally, into a baby quilt.




A stack of 10 five inch squares on the revolver! (the lessons we learn---)

I've had this
Brooklyn Revolver for years. It's what I used to cut the I Spy quilt and also the Fanfare to Hero's quilt among other things.Why did I forget how great this revolving cutting system works---10 layers cut accurately with Pat's template in less than 30 seconds! Zip-zip!

Pat even has a 6" inch Tumbler template! I could have used to make the large Tumbler quilt had I investigated this more. I just received that template. I guess I thought new was better, when old ways are resurfacing and turning out to be even better than I thought!
