TASTER: Rotary Сutting for Beginners with Sallieann Harrison
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 08-Sep-2022
Rotary cutting your fabric is a 'must have' skill for today's patchworker. You can cut several layers of fabric, accurately and quickly which means that your piecing is then accurate too. These tools have been designed with quilters in mind.
Sallieann takes you through the various options on the equipment: cutter, rulers and boards. Then she takes you through the 'how to', using strips of black fabric that will be needed in her upcoming patchwork series for beginners.
