When the folks at Olfa asked if I would like to try out one of their new Splash rotary cutters and blog about it, I just couldn't say no! The name "splash" and the fun color scheme had me hooked immediately. I have a quilt called Splash (shown below, it's a pattern in Sunday Morning Quilts) that matches the new cutter exactly. That is pretty fun!
I've been using the rotary cutter for a month or so and I'm loving it! It features a quick change blade, which is super simple to use. I tried it out just to see how it works (not because my blade was dull) and I like the ease of use. The cutter is light weight, but still sturdy. The contoured handle is wonderful! I cut with both my left and right hands intermittently and it works equally well in both. (Dare I say that only lefties can truly appreciate that?) Last but not least, did I mention that I love that it's aqua? Oh, I probably did. :)
I usually dread cutting, but between a cute new cutter and my new counter height cutting table, (see below) I've actually started to enjoy the process. In fact, I've started a few new habits. Whenever I cut for a project, I cut out a few extra 3" squares. When I'm ironing, I'll grab a scrap or two out of one of my many scrap baskets, press them, cut out a few 3" squares and add them to the pile. Between those two new habits, eventually I'll have enough squares to sew together into a quilt.
It's kind of like leaders and enders, but on the cutting front. It's a (feeble?) attempt to get my scraps under control. Because there is a teeny tiny chance that I might possibly have a scrap problem. Maybe. :)
Anyway....I'm happy to tell you that I also have a new splash rotary cutter to give away to one of my readers! If you would like to throw your name in the virtual hat, please leave me a comment at the end of this post. In your comment I'd like to hear one thing that you are looking forward to this week. I'll pick a winner in a few days. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my blog. I appreciate it very much. And as always....
Happy Monday to you!

Anything to make cutting fun! You are too cute!
This week is week 2 of my 50 weeks to 50. I am completely clearing my storage room, HGTV Clean Sweep style, finishing what I initiated when I did a huge garage sale last week. You'd be so proud. Friday we celebrate our youngest daughter's 10th birthday, followed that night by a departure for Spokane, WA for a business conference. It's gonna be an AWESOME week!!
Have a blast AmandaJean!
Looking forward to getting good news from the doctor this Wednesday,on my hubby neck problem.
If all is well then maybe I can do a little sewing.
Thanks for a chance to win -always fun to try - I am looking forward to finishing hand stitching the binding on the most recent lap quilt
I'm looking forward to starting a quilt for my new grandson. A new rotary cutter sure would come in handy. As a left hander I could appreciate one like this. Love the color too.
I am looking forward to being finished with packing up our house to move, though it is possibly a bit optimistic thinking I can finish this week!
Such a pretty cutter.... makes a boring job more fun!
I am looking forward to sleeping in my own bed after visiting my brother and camping... I miss comfort!
Fun stuff! Love that Sunday Morning quilts book. I am looking forward to getting my row-a-long quilt basted. I have all the layers but need to put them together. Thanks for all you do for us. K-
Been seeing these cutters all over...so cute.
Love the new cutter - and that blue! I look forward to Tuesdays every week as I have time at home to sew, or play with fabric, or plan, or shop. You get the idea! When will the cutter be available in shops? I know I don't have a hope of winning.
That looks like such a great rotary cutter! Being able to change the blade so easily is really a plus.
This week I'm looking forward to Thursday because I get to sleep in and don't have to go to work! :)
Looking forward to receiving a parcel in the post with backings for 3 quilts that I can then finish!!
I'm looking forward to getting my wedding announcements mailed out. It's the last thing to do. Yay for progress!
What am I looking forward to? On Friday, I am getting together to plan a charity quilt. The money we raise goes to scholarships at my daughters college.
Thank you Amanda.
Please where can I buy it? It's lovely. Thank you so much for your post. I follow you every day.
Good week.

I'm looking forward to beginning a new quilt. I finally gt the fabrics today for the quilt. It was supposed to be for my brothers wedding this weekend!
This week I am spending it with my girls. Just us girls to do whatever we want :-)
What a great cutting tip! I'm looking forward to having babies out of the NICU . . . in a few weeks. :) Thanks for the chance.
I look forward to kicking this tummy bug back where it came from and rejoining the land of the Well-feeling. The aqua is pretty yes; I've done two Aqua quilts.
I love your idea of cutting from your stash!
I am looking forward to our vacation at the end of the month. NY here we come!
What a super cute cutter!!! I just finished up a quilt this weekend, so I am really looking forward to starting the next one on my list.
love olfa cutters! this one is absolutely adorable!
looks like it makes cutting fun :)
Love the cutter!
I am looking forward to finishing my daughter's alphabet quilt (only took three years!).
I'm looking forward to picking blackberries at my aunt's this week and making something tasty with them!
Also, only one day over 100 degrees this week instead of 6 in a row!
I'm looking forward to reading the book I ordered last night on the weekend.
You can't go wrong with aqua!
When I cut fabric for a quilt or other project, if the remaining fabric is less than a fat quarter or so, I cut it into 5" strips, 2.5" strips, or just a straight strip. I've been wondering how to get to the scraps from before I began, but I think doing it when I iron is a great idea.
This week, I'm looking forward to getting my sewing room back under control. I don't clean while I sew, so every project or two, I have to get the room back to normal. This week, it's time.
Cute rotary cutter. I'm looking forward to Saturday, because we're going out to a nice dinner!
I could never have enough color in my life, or in my sewing room.
I'm looking forward to Friday at 5:00. Mr. Wonderful is picking me up from work and heading to Tahoe.
cool cutter! I am most looking forward to finishing up making about 40 pouches that I have going right now, thanks for the giveaway!
I would love a chance to win such a beautiful cutter! Right now, I have a boring yellowish one. And I will have to copy your habit of cutting 3" squares: it can get tedious to cut them all at once!
Thanks for the chance!
Would you believe that I have 3 quilts to cut out? One of the new splash rotary cutters would come in very handy. I do and then I don't with cutting from scraps. I did today!!
So cute! I quite like my rotary cutter, but I'd sure LOVE a new one!
I am simultaneously looking forward to, and not looking forward to Saturday. I am taking my two kids (2 year old and 3 month old) on a road trip to see my sister. I'm going alone because my husband has a week long business trip. So, I'm looking forward to seeing my sister, but not my husband leaving or the 7 hour drive to visit my sister. Whew. That was a long explanation ;)
I'm looking forward to steal a little time for my sewing projects - in this busy week!
I would also LOVE a new cutter! :)
Looking forward to sunny days instead of rain, rain, rain and maybe a little time to sew!!
Super cool! I'm looking forward to... getting my vacuum back so I can clean my messy house! lol (not really, but a cleaner house would be nice!)
Hi Amanda!
I am looking forward to giving a birthday present to a friend that I made using your tutorial (litttle bag with one vinyl side and zip at the top). It came out VERY cute! Thanks for all your wonderful tutorials. They have been a great inspiration to me and they are easy to read and understand
I'm looking forward to it being only 1 more week of school/work until the summer holidays! Thanks for the opportunity.
Hi! Love that the rotary cutter has the same name and colors as your great quilt! This week, I'm looking forward to going to In-n-Out with my best friend to catch up on how are boys are doing in college...well, and to eat those great burgers and fries too :)
I am going to pick up a Singer 301 that I found on Craig's list tomorrow after work. I am so looking forward to playing with it! :)
I've been doing the same with my scraps! ...mainly to try and be less of a hoarder and keep my "office" livable. :)
Can't wait to see what those little squares turn into.
I'm looking forward to going to my 5 year old granddaughter's singing a solo in her school concert on Wednesday. She is singing Castle on a Cloud from Les Miserables accompanied by my daughter on piano. she is so excited.

I so need a new rotary cutter, and what a cutie this one is. There are so many things to look forward to this week! The sun is finally in the sky it seems (hopefully for a few more days at least) and I am making a new waldorf doll for a little nephew :)

Great post im looking forward to working on my boyfriends birthday quilt im english paper peicing over 2000 squares!!! And this would really cheer me up!!! X
I need a new rotary cutter so this couldn't have come at a better time! The thing I'm looking forward to most this week is getting to order fabric! It's for a commission quilt but still it will be new fabric!! :D
Wow that's a cute cutter!!
I'm looking forward to meet for our monthly sewing day, with Lovely Ladies on Saturday, which means sewing and chatting all day. It's such a great day. Can't wait :-)
You don't have a scrap problem - you are just very provident and a fine example of reducing waste! I am looking forward to a bit of rain and some snuggle days inside.
I am looking forward to something I want to bid on finishing tomorrow on ebay - I know it is a bit sad but i will be bidding at the end and I get a real adrenalin rush!
I am looking forward to a cook out this week with some friends. Thanks
That cutter is so fun...love it! I'm looking forward to some sewing time this week. Been such a busy summer I haven't had much!
Thanks for the chance to win! :)
I love that it is in aqua too!
I'm looking forward to being home from holiday
Great idea to make a few squares when you're cutting/ironing. I'm making your chequerboard quilt at the moment. It's a gradual process. When im watching tv I grap one of my scrap boxes and cut out 2.5" squares. I love the way it's like a memory quilt of the fabrics I've used on other projects. Maggie xx ps would love to win!
I love my rotary cutter. It really makes the cutting go faster.
I am looking forward to getting my sewing machine out and doing some piecing after a visitors-enforced break (not that it isn't wonderful to have guests, but I needs my sewing fix too).
Nice cutter. I just saw when I changed blade in mine, the hole is not round anymore! The cutter is more than 20 years old.
This week I am looking forward to our son´s birthday and in my quilting world it is to finish a quilt top.
Love the colour! I am looking forward to a Worksop with Gwen Marston tomorrow. (Squeals)
What a sweet giveaway! Great idea on cutting the three inch squares, too. I've started sewing together some log cabin blocks as leader/enders. I'm just cutting up some 1.5 logs and sewing them onto the block and trimming after.
I am most looking forward to a break in the heat later on this week and getting my hair cut tomorrow. I always wait too long & feel (and look) like Frumpy McFrumpenstein. I know--small pleasures. LOL
I am looking forward to finish a quilt top for a very special little girl. I would say it's about 3/4 finished. Love the new cutter.
Cortador bonito e divertido, marca boa, lindo.

Looking forward to making a news jammer dress for this super hot weather. It is long which seems quite fashionable at the moment and I wonder if I dare to wear as I am far too old for fashion - no really. I am a war baby. I can always shorten it but i can't lengthen it. jennylarking@gmail.com
I'm looking forward to a family reunion this weekend and to finishing the quilt for my aunt and giving it to her at the reunion. Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm looking forward to a sunny weekend at home!
What a lovely giveaway :) I would love to try something different.
My scrap basket's are way out of control but Im working on them and cutting small squares for another quilt :) x
A cutter with bright colours will suit me well! I'm looking forward to sewing more hexagons on my La Passion quilt. Halv way to eight hundred right now.
Hi Amanda Jean!
I am looking forward to placing my first quilt on my bed this week. I am a new quilter (one Year) and took on the project of the Underground Railroad during my first months of quilting. I was never a sewer so this was quite the undertaking for me.
I have followed your website for months now and have to say I so enjoy your postings.
So...back to me....I am very excited about putting my very own quilt on my bed...maybe even today if I can get the last few things done to it.
Yippeeee!!!!!
Judi
Cute cutter :) I've never understood why they don't come in a range of nice colours! I'm looking forward to this evening, I cast on a shawl last night and I can knit when my toddler is in bed :)
Love the color of this new cutter!
I am looking forward to Friday this week and a nice cottage weekend!
Today I leave for CA. Tomorrow, me, my parents, my sister and nephews will head to CO for a mini reunion. We will stop in Vegas for a few days at my 13 year old nephews request. My favorite aunt in the whole world lives in CO. She is an avid quilter and is my mentor!!
Cute colors...hard to resist! I look forward to sewing something...anything....as we were away for the last 10 days and no access to anything craft related!

Great idea for cutting your scraps! I have been cutting snippets as I go lately because I have been sewing clothes instead of quilts. If a piece only needs a snip or two to go into the snippets bucket, then I have been clipping and tossing. LOL. Same with "strings". Odd shaped pieces are going in the "odd shaped pieces" bucket for now. LOL.
I am looking forward to the possibility of getting a few old projects finished up this week and the fact that I don't have to be at work until 11 on Friday which means I have some quiet house cleaning time that morning.
I'd ;ove to have one of those cutters. I'm looking forward to a fairly quiet week. If it isn't too hot I'll be out in the garden. Otherwise I'll be sewing on an outfit to wear to my granddaughter's wedding in about t wks.
I am looking forward to some fabric arriving in the mail so I can finish the backing of a quilt! Thanks for the chance to win.

Looking forward to my birthday on Thursday. Getting together with family!
I'm looking forward to working on costumes for Cheaper by the Dozen!
I'm looking forward to going to the nursery and picking out plants.
I'm looking forward to finishing a knitted square for a blanket I am seaming together. It's been a big labor of love from many people for a special woman in our knitting group, with each person knitting a square and me seaming all of them together into a big knitted hug. (A few more squares left to come in, but when they do, I have my darning needle at the ready!)
I'm looking forward to picking vegetables in my garden. kcannon@anwsu.org
I'm looking forward to cutting my grass, if it will stop raining long enough. Thank you for the give away.
I am looking forward to getting the keys to our new house and setting up my craft room!!!
I am looking forward to cutting out my project for a future workshop. It's taken many hours but I have finally pulled all of my fabrics.
I would love that rotary cutter! I have only been quilting since March (didn't even own a sewing machine or know how to use one until then either)! I'm looking forward to starting my second baby quilt this week!
This week I am looking forward to spending time with my grandson. He always makes me smile. Thanks for the giveaway!
I am looking forward to getting the keys to our new house and setting up my craft room!!!
Nice cutter! Looking forward to a quilt show in Dewey, Oklahoma
I am finishing a BINDING....
I am finishing a BINDING....
Ooh...thanks for being so generous...love the cutter and your projects...great idea about cutting your scraps. I am looking forward to teaching my first "Color Me Crazy" class this Thursday night. I have 5 very fun ladies coming and I can't wait to see what they do. Have a great day.
I'm looking forward to being one week closer to my nephew's first birthday gathering with my family!
Seeing my son and his family!
I am looking forward to a barbecue with my family on Friday. I love the colour and the name of the cutter.
Love the color of the new cutter. I am looking foreward to getting to the bottom of my scrap bin. Cutting all week into usable pieces.
Splash looks great! This week I am looking forward to going on vaccation! Can't wait! The weather is much better, quite warm actually, so going for a swim in the lake nearby is a top priority!
I'm always excited to read about a new cutter and would love a chance to use this one on my stash!
Thanks for the inspiration!
Amandajean, I am looking forward to being able to work on some UFO projects this week. It is VBS week at our church which means late nights away from home and not being able to sew like I would like to. I love this new splash cutter. My 45mm just broke on me after years of cutting fabric. I might just have to get a splash to replace it! Thank you for the chance to win!
This looks like a handy tool!
I'm looking forward to taking my girls camping for the first time this weekend :-)
Love the idea of cutting extra squares! Thanks for the give away.
It would be great fun to have a pretty and new rotary cutter! This week I am expecting a visit from a life long friend. We will talk and catch up for hours!
I could use that cutter. I am looking forward to our annual quilt club picnic. Come and join us! Thanks
I am looking forward to finishing (sanding/staining) a big antique cabinet. Through the glass doors I will be able to see my fabrics!!
Hi Amanda Jean its lovely to hear your comments about the new cutter. It would be nice to try it out too but that depends on luck. I am looking forward to going out to dinner with my daughter before she leaves on a long vacation. Marie (mlismore@optusnet.com.au)
Cutting is my favorite part of the quilting process. Love the bright colors of this new one.
This week, I am looking forward to going to a quilt expo in Denver and meeting several fellow Colo. longarmers with whom I have been emailing lately!
I admire your brain if you are able to cut with either hand - awesome! I'm looking forward to taking two days vacation at the end of the week. That is, IF I get all the work chores crossed off my list. Sometimes being self employed is worse than working for someone else! You never take time off.
What a pretty rotary cutter! Glad to hear it works good too! I am looking forward to getting a few more block free motion quilted on my brother's surprise birthday quilt. He was born on Halloween so all the fabric is Halloween fabric.
I love my Olfa rotary cutter, but it isn't aqua! And it couldn't hurt to have two, right???
I am looking forward to my birthday (Thursday) and leaving for our beach vacation (Saturday)!
Love the color of this rotary cutter!
I'm looking forward to a week without any obligations so that I can get some sewing projects done that need to be finished!
Love your blog. We are being furloughed one day a week for the next 11 weeks (thanks to sequestration) so I'm looking forward to getting some Friday quilting in to "celebrate"...cutting and making quilts for my nieces.
I agree! Love the colors and am glad they also are fun to use.
Cutting is my least fav part of the process too. :) Thanks for the giveaway.
I would love to try out one of these cutters. I am a leftie, so I can appreciate that it goes both ways. I am hopefully looking forward to less rain this week. I have been completely drenched at the ball park for 4 days in a row.
Good review of the cute cutter. Will have to try it out.
Question: What is the source of your new cutting table? It looks perfect with the under counter storage drawers.
Vacation!
I love the scrap idea....because I may have a problem also, lol!
I am looking forward to finishing my grandson's "tractor" quilt this week. Just the binding to go!
Looking forward to finishing my nephew's quilt this week.
Love the cutter and your blog!
I've been saving 2.5 inch scraps for-ever. Maybe someday I'll get around to putting them together. ANYWAY... this week I'm looking forward to finishing a quilt top for a friend who is pregnant. She chose blues and grays and it's been fun working with this color combo.
I'm looking forward to seeing my friends at guild meeting this afternoon and picking up a couple of tops to turn into beautiful quilts!
Thanks for the opportunity to win that cute cutter.
I love the new color and the quick change feature is awesome.....
I'm not much one for cutting either ~ but it has to be done to get anything made.
I'm looking forward to straightening up my sewing space this week ~ things are out of control.
What a cool cutter, thanks for the chance to win. I am looking foward to my in-laws visiting later this week.
I love the aqua!!
I'm looking forward to helping my daughter finish up her Horse 4H Record Book for the Canyon County Fair!
Pretty cutter, I am looking forward to starting a new quilt on Friday and having TWO whole days of sewing, bliss.
Love the cheerful colors of this new rotary cutter! I am headed to a conference with my husband this week and am looking forward to some sewing time while he is at his meetings. Hope to finish some small projects. Thanks for the fun giveaway.
Oooh! Pretty! I've been eyeing off this style cutter for a while now!
What I'm looking forward to the most this week is that hopefully my 19 month old niece gets to go home from the hospital on Friday. Despite her only going home for the comfort of her own home for the remaining time she has with us.
On a Craft front, I am looking forward to having finished my first full quilt, pieced, sandwiched AND Quilted by me for another of my nieces so she has some handmade love in such a trying time :|
Thanks for the chance to win- I love the idea of a quick change blade, so I can switch between a paper blade and a fabric blade without losing the little spring everytime!
A friend I have not seen in a few years is coming to visit this week, looking forward to catching up and having fun.
This week I am looking forward to opening the windows and breathing some fresh air...it has been so hot and muggy. The air conditioning is really getting to me.
Oh turquoise -- one of my favorite colors and with orange too -- wonderful! I'm looking forward to resting up after just returning from the west coast to visit new granddaughter!
OOOHHHH! A new cutter....what fun! I am expecting my grands to stay for a few days this week. Always a fun time! Thanks.
I am looking forward to my girls swim team ending so I can sleep in!!!
Very fun Ms. Crazy -- I love how the cutter matches your quilt. I'm looking forward to Friday -- 'cause it's my day off -- WooHoo!
I LOVE the splash rotary cutter! Aqua is the main color in my new sewing ctr. We just moved two weeks ago and it is still in the process of being set up. That is what i am looking forward to this week, setting up my machines and running the missoula marathon on sunday. Sewing will be a great way to recover! :)
I'm spending all of July with my granddaughter, and I look forward to each day!
Love the colors of the new rotary cutter, not so industrial as the safety gold and black!
Love the color! I am looking forward to a quiet weekend - 4th of July weekend was kind of crazy around my house. Hoping to start putting my night & day squares together also!
I am in the habit of doing leaders and enders - I'll have to start the cutting habit, too - great idea! I'm hoping to start quilting my grandson's I-spy quilt. thanks for the chance.
I am excited to make a set of coasters and finish my traveler dress! Thanks for the chance to win--I've wanted to try this new cutter!
I'm looking forward to spending time with friends who are in from out of town, camping with family and hopefully some sewing time!
I, too, tend to cut scraps into 3" squares but I do it after I finish a project. I can't handle odd sizes so either it goes into a square (3" or 5") or it gets thrown away. I don't have the room or the inclination to keep up with a lot of scraps. However, never say never. I just made a patchwork pillow out of 2.5" squares and it turned out pretty cute. I might have to rethink my process. Thanks for the chance to win that darling rotary cutter!
I would REALLY like to win this!! :-) I bought a little rotary cutter a few months ago for trimming when paper piecing ~ it is fabulous! So much sharper than my other rotary cutters. (so sharp that I've cut myself a few times - so be careful)
I am looking forward to Friday when my hubby is off work :-)
I'm looking forward to my Modern Quilt Guild meeting tonight
Cute! Anything that makes cutting a little better!!
I am looking forward to a quiet week of sewing after a week of cleaning for guests last week!
Cute cutter! I am looking forward to my guild meeting this Thursday night because I have a show and tell quilt, My President Stars Quilt is quilted and will hopefully be bound.
I'm looking forward to our first trip to the pool this summer!
I'm on vacation so I am looking forward to relaxing on the beach, swimming in the ocean and dinner out! Thanks for a great giveaway.
I am headed to California for a family vacation this week. It's both fun and stress inducing.
Ok, this might sound terrible but I am more so looking forward to the weekend. My dh is taking some scouts mountain climbing and my ds is going on a float trip. I will have the house to myself!!!!!!
I love the color of that cutter. I am tired of the old yellow and dark grey cutters I have.
pam
Cute cutter! I plan to sew more "while the Cat is away" this week. Signed, the Mouse
I´d love to win the rotary cutter! :-)
I´m looking forward to swimming in the lake for the first time this year!
I am looking forward to maybe going to Gettysburg this weekend!
I like the look of this rotary cutter! Thanks!
Nothing like having a cute rotary cutter! Does the blade stay covered or do you have to move it open & closed?
I'm looking forward to moving all of our furniture back into the bedrooms & my sewing room after having the rest of the flooring installed in our house.
That cutter is so cute...especially next to your quilt! I'm looking forward to a graduation party for my daughter and then off to Denver for a quick visit.
I love the colors of that cutter too. I am looking forward to piecing together my finished blocks for my Tula Pink "Kiss Kiss" quilt.
This week I am looking forward to my Saturday morning breakfast date with my dear hubby! Even though we are empty nesters, it gives us a long period of time sitting down together drinking coffee and eating our breakfast without the need to be anywhere else! We can really focus on each other! Even the waitresses know this is our "date" time and they keep the coffee flowing both before and after the food arrives. They also make sure we never feel "rushed" as they know it is "our" time in a busy week!
From a crafty viewpoint I am looking forward to finishing my first Christmas gift...a Collapsible Craft Container to match my mom's sewing box!
i love this cutter and being a south paw, it makes all the difference in the world. what do i look forward to? i have several health problems, and some are life threatening. so i look forward to just waking up every morning. lol second is to make more charity quilts. i have hand pieced and hand quilted over two hundred quilts and given them to charties. hopefully i can make another 200 to donate babscorbitt@gmail.com
So pretty! And I love how it matches your Splash quilt in the book!
I'm looking forward to Saturday, bacause this is going to be a long work week and there's already been some extra stress dished out.....
I leave for Sisters Oregon on Wednesday, to attend their quilt show and take a class with Sue Spargo. I am so excited. A new rotary cutter would be fantastic to have as I am sure I will come home with lots of inspiration, patterns, and fabric.
Love the aqua color! As always I am counting down the days until the weekend where I spend my time reading at the beach!
I am looking forward to maybe squeezing some "me" time in and actually getting to sit at my machine to do some sewing!
What a fun giveaway! Love the tip for reducing my giant scrap stash, too...
Got my fingers crossed for a new Splash cutter....
Blessings,
Celia
Oh boy thanks for the chance to win :0).
Since my granddaughter has gone home :0( I'm looking forward to spending some time with my friends grandkids on Wed..
Happy Sewing
I am looking forward to helping in the High River Flood Recovery. Yes, I am looking forward to helping gut basements and help clean up. I feel it is the least I can do. Thanks for the opportunity to win a new cutter. It will be put to good use.
I'm looking forward to celebrating my grandma's 85th birthday!
Thank you so much for this chance. I love aqua too. I am looking forward to finishing my Swoon blocks. I have 3 of the 9 done. I have wanted to make this for a long time and finally joined the Swoon 2013 on flickr. Thank you for having such a wonderful blog!
I have been eyeing the Splash! It looks like a great cutter! Keep up the great habits ~ you will have enough squares for a quilt in no time!
That cutter looks great! I look forward to getting the back on my nephew's graduation quilt. I made him a zigzag quilt from your tute. I hope he likes it! Thank you!
I have rheumatoid arthritis; anything that makes rotary cutting easier/more comfortable is welcome! And it's so pretty, too! Thanks for the chance to win!
I am looking forward to visiting a local rose garden!
I love the Splash cutter! I am looking forward to continuing my sewing room organization, and I vow to keep it that way! Thanks for a chance!

I'd love to have this cutter! My old one just keeps hanging on but I know there's a better one out there.
I'm looking forward to my first born turning 29! Am I really that old to have a 29 year old? eeee

I am looking forward to our first grandchild (a girl!) being born this week!
I am excited to see the sun again - they're calling for rain in my hometown the next few days, but the weekend looks bright!
Good Morning,
I'm looking forward to being able to pick up my grandson, Malcolm from preschool. In the car he tells me everything and how he doesn't like sharing(laugh). Think the color of the rotary cutter is very cool.
I love your comment about your possibly scrap problem! I'm looking forward to some cooler weather this week and to starting a new baby quilt.
Wow what a cute cutter. I could definitely use it. This week I am busy getting ready to celebrate my daughters' birthdays this weekend. One will be 8 and the other is turning 4. They are a joy and we are having fun making decorations and little treats for the party together. Thanks for the giveaway.
You are so thoughtful! I'm looking forward to spending time with 2 cousins I usually only see at funerals - and there isn't one this time!! Yippee!
I am looking forward to the arrival of my new sofa and my old sofa leaving. This is also good news for the sewing room because the love seat hat occupies part of my sewing room will also be leaving (whooo whooo). Bonnie hunter is doing a quilt cam this week tomorrow and I plan on catching up on my block of the week and month projects during this quilting time.
Cute, cute, cute! I'm looking forward to quilt guild meeting this week, and getting back to daughter's softball games after a week off (OK, that was two things...).
you are awesome at using scraps!! and making them coordinate!!
i'm looking forward to getting back to the gym.
After a family wedding last weekend, I'm looking forward to a more quiet week!!
There's a guild sew-in tomorrow, so I will be going to that.
That rotary cutter looks great...hope I win.
I'm looking forward to jumping in a pool later this week!
I have read a couple of blog posts about that cutter and everyone seems to really like it. Would be awesome to win one. I am looking forward to Friday, we are headed out of town to visit my brother and family. Thanks for the chance to win!
Loving the Splash! I am looking forward to a week with my visiting mom and finishing a quilt for a soon-to-be born nephew.

I'm looking forward to starting my third quilt ever, which is for a friend's new nephew. She liked the first quilt I ever made (for my son) and wants one just like it.
I am looking forward to starting on a new quilt project for the Moda Bake Shop! :)
