What to do...

What do I do when I can't stand to Rotary Cut because it hurts my Hand?  I Blog Hop, go out and shop, LOL,  and dream of new projects.  I tried to put away chairs after Church on Sunday and my wrist is hurting pretty bad again.  I can use the sewing machine, but Cutting with the rotary cutter HURTS!

When I took my Pink project out to show Lynn on Wednesday, we decided that I would need to basically take it all apart and re-sew it.  She said she couldn't Quilt That much wrinkling Out. 
Have you heard that song?
 Cathy Miller's Song "You Can Quilt that Out" It's pretty funny!

So, it's back to the drawing board with it and I'll have to just put it on the back burner again. 
I did get the Miters cut for the border on my BOM "The Romance Continues" quilt.  Thanks to the new Ruler from Marti Michell. It's called her favorite Mitering Ruler  for good reason!


Lynn got this Accuquilt Die (on the left)by mistake and asked if I wanted it. If my hand keeps hurting, my Baby Go might be my best way to cut. While I was out at Thread and Bolts, I broke her 6.5" ruler.  
I went to JoAnn's to get a replacement and they don't carry the 6.5" Omnigrid anymore. I found this BIG numbered one by EZ quilting. Lynn found them on her EESchencks website so she will order one. 
 
I guess I have a new ruler...
I also picked up a copy of the 'Quilts and more' magazine and went to a thrift store and found the remnants of fabric that is rolled up there. I keep adding to my neutral stash, the green called to me, the price was right.

 In my Mailbox this week I got the items pictured below.  My autographed copy of El's Kitchen Book that just came out in April.  My "BLUE" charms by Jo Morton and a Jelly Roll from Missouri Star Quilt Co.
Saturday I have a SEW-In with my Quilt Guild and will be trying to cut out and sew some "House Blocks" for our Local "Habitat for Humanity" quilts. Wish me luck!
We make and present a quilt to the new homeowners for the houses built in our area.
