    Default It Isn't Very Large....But

    I hated to throw away my old cutting mat, and I have been wanting a design wall. I glued some batting on it and it works. Not fancy, but who cares. I can even hang it up.

    Thanks NH, Yes I am hoping the Patriots win for everyone back home. My brother-in-law bought me the sign. It says Bruins Blvd. :-)

    Well, that's a brilliant idea, thanks for sharing. It's do-able, even for me! I have an old mat under the bed.

    Great idea. I bought a mat just like this at an estate sale. I didn't need another but couldn't pass it up b/c it was only a dollar (brand new). Now I can put it (or the original one) to use. Thank you!
