Oh, ok I thought it was like a ringed exacto knife. That's what he got me. They have them at walmart.

After reading this post this morning, I went to Joann's.and at the cash register, they had the OLFA little cutter and I didn't think it was what you both were talking about.

I read this latest post now that it is what your hubby bought for you..looks good but I already have a very small exacto knife.
Works fine for me........

I bought one of these to use in card making and for cutting paper templates. I like the way it fits my index finger and gives me lots of control and even pressure during cuttting.

Thank you SEW much! You always seem to know exactly what I'll like!! :D :D You have spoiled me rotten! :thumbup:

I received a package from my secret angel yesterday
Some very pretty orange fat quarters to help build my stash and some cute little Bobbin Bikinis, they are fancy little rubber bands to put around your bobbins to keep the thread from unwinding. Now why did I not think of this when I got rid of all my daughters little girl hair stuff. She had a bunch of these but her hair got to thick for them...lol, oh well I never think of the good ideas.
Thanks Angel love the gifts

Okay, I just have to say it right out loud. My SQA is the BEST!!!! I got home from work today and found a long thin package by my front door. I hadn't ordered anything, but my husband is an Amazon fiend, so I figured it was for him and told him about it when he got home. He said it wasn't his; it was for me. When I opened it up I found this fantastic sign, "It is what it is," which is my signature on this board and kind of my motto in life--it reminds me to deal with things the way they really are and not the way I wish they were! It also reminds me that my quilts are good enough--they don't have to be perfect!

SQA, I just love this sign! It came as a total surprise to me, because I already got a package from you this week. Thank you so much--this is going in a place of honor in my sewing room. You're the bomb!

laparshall 06-12-2010 03:27 AM

Harmony: Your SQA wins the award of finding the coolest gift this week! She must have been beside herself with excitement when she saw that sign. What a great gift.

sewnsewer2 06-12-2010 07:12 AM

Oh Harmony, I love your sign!

My motto is " I can because I think I can"!

sewjoyce 06-12-2010 02:09 PM

Harmony -- you sign is just precious!! Would love to know where I can find one.... :D
