I hate the prewashing and ironong of the fabric before cutting.

I don't like sandwiching it all together. It is so frustrating to get everything to lay straight and flat.

My leased favorite now is the cutting as it is very painful. I use a rotary cutter,but with a toner rotator cuff makes even that difficult.:)

I hate straightening the fabric before cutting! I don't mind "squaring," but the extra effort to straighten the whole thing is a pain in the ... . I struggle with believing that it's necessary.

Sashing is my least favorite; cutting out is my most favorite.

I can relate to all that. I put cardboard extensions on my dining table.
