I am sure glad to hear that, I have a girl friend that cut out all her pieces with scissors. When I showed her the Olfa cutter I thought she was going to faint. No one had ever introduced her to the Olfa cutter. She had just found a pattern she liked and figured it could not be that hard to make and I will say her quilt did come out very nice for a first quilt..She passed away last Thanksgiving she was my maid of honor at my wedding 50 years ago. Should not talk about her, it always makes me cry.

all her quilt
Uh-huh!! I have one of those.l
Oh --and MNM, I still used scissors occasionally -- but not for cutting out pieces or strips. Once in a while, I do need to shimmy something up a bit.[/quote][/quote]
I feel the same way now as you, my BIL died today from a brain bleed and I get teary when I think of him.

So sorry to hear about your BIL. I guess I am just a big baby, I have tears in my eyes over you BIL. So sad to lose someone you love. Must go read something funny and happy to get rid of these tears. My heart goes out to you. MNM

Thank you MNM I get tears every time some thing good or some thing bad happens. John was not only my BIL he was my next door neighbor too so I will miss those silly -Hello Heather , I have messages on my phone and can't read them --as he hands me his mobile phone. You have one like mine ( which I do not) I cannot make him understand that, no matter what I say, it went in one ear and out the other. Poor John!! I put it down to his age and the epilepsy like attacks that he kept having for all the years I knew him.

So two weeks ago when I missplaced my credit card and looked and looked for it and emptied everything out of my wallet three times, purse three times, looked in pockets, washer, dryer, etc and could not find it, the Gremlins had it?
Anyway, told DH it was MIA and two minutes later he found it and gave it to me. AAAAAAAAARGHHHHHHHHHH! Where? "It was in the wrong side of your wallet inside a folded up receipt". He wanted to know why I had not asked 'the bloodhound' (him) to find it earlier? (Now I am ready to throttle him).
I do lose my seam ripper once in awhile. Usually it is under my recliner.
