    Hopefully someone who does know will jump in here and try to explain. I wonder if you did a search on your computer if anything would come up? Sorry, I tried.

    Cajun Quilter2,
    Can you tell me where I can locate the Martelli cutting mat? We saw them last yr at the Quilt Show in Knox. Tn. but he was not there this year. My friend saved all year to get one and then he was not there. She was so disappointed and I have tried to locate them on Google but with not luck. Please let me know if you can.
    Thanks,
    Golden Threader

    Go to www.martellinotions.com and then go to the online store. They have their rotary cutters, rulers and mats.

    Horizontal spool feeder/adaptor. Wouldn't be without them for using metallic/lamé threads.
    Different gadgets and tools depending on what I am doing at the moment. <G>

    Thank you CraftyBear! I learn something new every day!
    Looks like a OMW is just the same block in a repeated pattern - using a template!
    Hugs,
    Terry in NY
