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!

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 649 Newer› Newest»I have wondered what the difference is between the new Splash cutter and my old work horse. Love the quick change feature. Toss my hat in the ring for a chance to win.
My mother-in-law flew in from Iceland yesterday and I'm REALLY looking forward to spending time with her this week. She's a great cook, very helpful and laughs easily...I just love her...
What a great idea about cutting extra squares. I think I'm going to start doing that. I'm looking forward to a pool party for my kids this weekend. It'll be nice and hot here in sunny Southern California! Thanks :)
Love the cutter! I am looking forward to getting back to sewing on my new Juki F400 (which I love!!!) after being out of town the last week.
I am looking forward to hanging out with our children while they are out of school and with our new lab puppy that we adopted last week.
thanks for the giveaway! i am expecting 3 packages of fabric in the mail this week. i'm always looking forward to that.
I appreciate the info about what you are doing to cut down on scraps. What a great idea to make a scrap pile of all 3" squares. I am going to start doing just that.
I also appreciate the chance to win a new cutter. My old Olfa is working just fine, but I really like the new color.
I have the same cutting table as you and I really love it - perfect height and great size. I've been thinking I should be cutting my scraps into a shape to sew up later, but I still have to decide what that shape is. One day I'll get there!
I recently bought one on sale. However, it seemed to have developed a gap and doesn't cut cleanly. Will change out the blade to see if that helps. Cutting out all the pieces for a Judy Niemeyer design means I need a good blade.
The color of this cutter is so bright and fun! I can't wait to change the blade on it for the first time. I also enjoy cutting my strips and squares as I go in hopes my scraps will be contained also. Thanks for the chance to win a rotary cutter.
Is it ok to say that I'm really looking forward to Friday? ;) Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm at quilt camp this week in beautiful Costa Mesa Ca. I such fun and I'm learning a lot!
You, with a scrap problem? Nah. :)
This week I'm looking forward to a quilt guild meeting! Love seeing all my peeps.
Thanks for the review & the give-a-way!
I'm looking forward to having my family here this weekend!

Thanks for the chance to win! I am really looking forward to my dad coming home from the hospital this week.

I am hoping for some rain this week.

I love the colorway of the new cutter. I am teaching a friend to quilt and could use an extra.
I'm looking forward to the humidity going away... so we can go outside and enjoy the summer!
That really is a super cool rotary cutter, but my mind is mostly on having a new grand-child today! Our oldest son's wife is due...well, two days ago! So we are very anxiously awaiting the arrival of a new baby girl! Did I mention that I am excited?
Love the quilt and so neat that it matches the rotary cutter!
Love your new cutting habit, great idea. Would love to win this cutter, I have seen a few people post about how great it is. Thanks for a chance to win.

What a neat cutter. Would love to have one.
I am looking forward to a fundraising chicken dinner for our son's fire department. They have raised all of the money to build a new firehouse (no loans or government funding) and now are trying to get the finishing things.
As a leftie I was waiting to see how others liked it. I'm ready to give it a try! :-)

I've seen that cutter and would love to try it too. Great post, thanks for the chance.

Saturday is a big quilt show in Hot Springs, Arkansas. I have gone before and I love it. Have been looking forward to it for awhile. I would love to win this new cutter.
Love the colors! And a contoured handle with a quick-change blade--what's not to like. I'm looking forward to our 37th wedding anniversary, and coffee with friends later in the week
Sounds like a great cutter (I'm a leftie too)! This week, I'm looking forward to binding my latest baby quilt in a nice turquoise. I think it's my cutest one yet!
I have been coveting that aqua cutter since they released it! :)
This week I bought and put together a new sewing desk from Ikea. I'm looking forward to finally getting my space organized and having a huge tabletop to sew on!
The bf and I are planning a hike for this weekend, which should be fun. We've been talking about going for way too long, so it's time we got our acts together. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love a new cutter :) Maybe then I could catch up on all the sewing/quilting I've been too busy to get to. I'm looking forward to riding the Harley with my husband on Friday. We have all day ride planned. I can't wait!

This week, I'm looking forward to trying out two new dinner recipes! :)
I'm looking forward to my brother's visit and winning a new cutter. Thanks.
Very cute, im always amazed at how much simpler cutting seems with a fresh blade. even better if you dont have to slice yourself while replacing it. those leader enders add up quick, before you know it you will have a quilt.
peach patch quilts
dhia.peach@gmail.com
I never thought about leader and enders for cutting! I'm going to start taming my scrap basket this week and that little trick just might help!
I would love to try that rotary cutter, I hate changing the blade in mine!
This week I'm looking forward to going sailing on my parent's boat with my hubby and kids. It's a little thing but it makes me so happy!

Aqua!!!! How cool!
I'm looking forward to taking a quilt over to a new baby girl tomorrow (along with dinner for her family).
This week I look forward to having some time for myself and clean the new old sewing machine I found in a sales shop (don't know the English word) for almost nothing. But we'll see when that happens.
I like the colours of the new cutter, too. I have the yellow one.
Cute! christina112358 at gmail dot com
I would love a new rotary cutter and a pretty one at that. I am looking forward to a visit from 2 of my grandsons.
There are several things I am looking forward to this week. I will be 62 tomorrow, the next block comes out on Aiming for Accuracy Quilt-a-long, and I get to go to my favorite quilt shop Thursday to learn how to make pillowcases/with name embroidered on it. Sooo many things to be thankful for. Thank you for all you do.
This week I'm looking forward to sewing with a friend who is visiting from out of town. It's fun to have a quilting buddy. It always involves going to the fabric store. Thanks for the opportunity.
I am looking forward to cooler days. It's been in the 90's in my area and we're not far from the beach at all.
I think my cutter is probably past its best after 9 years so I could do with a new one! Thanks for the give away!
I'm in desperate need of a new cutter! Thanks for the chance!
Quilts and accessories matching, what could be better than that?? :)

Your scraps are always so beautiful, what I wouldn't give to raid your scrap stash! :-)

I've been drooling over these new rotary cutters I've been seeing around blogland! This will be a long week getting back to work after the holiday, but I am looking forward to a sewing day on Saturday with my peeps! I haven't seen my quilting friends for a while and it will be fun to sew and catch up. Thanks for the chance!
This week I'm looking forward to nicer weather, so I can play outside with my son. It's been so rainy and muggy that we haven't really done that yet this week! :( Bummer!
Thank you! I'm looking forward to less intense heat. It's not meshing too well with my hot flashes!
Love the aqua! It matches a quilt I just started working on!
I don't really need another rotary cutter but did want to say how much I enjoyed this post and your scrap cutting idea!
I'm looking forward to catching up with a friend I only see a few times a year, and trawling through our patchwork magazines and books!
I am looking forward to being finished with errands and phone calls so I can sit and sew ALL day long! I'm hoping I can on Thursday. LOL
I am so looking to any evening that allows me to do my new favorite hobby - sewing faux-ny felt items (like the "watch" I made last night) for my almost 2 year old!
What a snazzy looking cutter! I'm looking forward to achieving a few UFO's.
Oh, how fun. Gotta love an awesome rotary cutter! Great thinkin' on the new habits - I've been trying to tame some scraps, too, by getting them pressed and cut into usable sizes. What am I looking forward to this week? Finding something fun and "summery" to do with my kids. :-)
LOVE the color(like a wall in my kitchen, and some FABRIC I've collected) of the cutter!!! I'll be fixing blueberry muffins and having a friend over for coffee/muffins tomorrow AM and then to a quilt shop. Also I'll be finishing the binding on a UFO and doing some blocks of the 100 Modern Quilt Blocks--love summer! ! Marlae
I am looking forward to the weekend (as always!) too bad it's only Tuesday! ;)
Very cute! Please enter me. I am new to quilting and slowly adding new items to help. Im looking forward to Thursday and Friday as Im on vacation those days! Going to a Neil Gaimon book signing.
I'm looking forward to finally getting some time in my sewing space. It's been a couple of weeks since I've sewn anything and I'm having withdrawals.
Thanks for the giveaway.
I've been reading about the new splash cutter and it would be fun to try one out. Plus I love aqua.
I leave for a mountain vacation this weekend, so I am looking forward to that!
I broke my ankle on June 1st and I'm looking forward to being able to crawl around on the floor again so that I can finish up I few quilts that I have been working on. They have gotten too big to handle in my small sewing area....I need the floor space!!!!!
Going to the beach!
put my name in the hat, please!
i'm looking forward to a trip to the swedish mountains, on sunday, and some handsewing during our oneweek trip.

Love my rotary cutter. Would like to know how this is different from the regular olfa rotary.
I too don't care for cutting, I feel I don't do it exactly enough. (grammer??) I am so looking forward to using or trying to use my new long arm quilting machine I just got last weekend and it is finally loaded and ready to start quilting.
I love the color of that cutter. This is a tool you can never have too many of. Again, I so enjoy your blog and thanks so much for sharing.
Email is colemansharon@me.com
oooooh, love the aqua. thanks for the chance to win!
I would love this! I'm actually super excited for this week as my fabric has finally arrived in the mail and its time to start putting together blocks for my first quilt ever!!
Matching your quilt to your cutter, now that's the height of colour theory!
That's a cool rotary cutter. I cant wait to finish my Hoffman challenge quilt and send it in. Cant wait to see the finished quilt!
Oh! Just saw this cute cutter advert in "Quilty" mag. Looking forward to finally (!) getting into a daily summer schedule with my kids, which will hopefully afford mom some quilting time.
I am looking forward to Friday! Lol!
Throwing my name in the hat! I could use a new cutter, I can't find the blades for mine any more :(
I'm looking forward to Thursday, the day of of a nine day stretch! I haven't been able to sew all week and I need to finish up a banner for my dad's Harley club

I started three months ago to cut my fabric that was less than a 1/4 yard and fabric that I no longer like into 25" strips. I have made a Scrappy Trip Around the World but now I realize that it will take forever to use up all these strips. I think I'll cut four and two inch strips from now on. It might be easier to use them up.
I have been wanting to try that cutter! I am looking forward to making raspberry jam tomorrow. Just picked a bowlful from our patch.
Love the color! I am looking forward to the wk end so I can spend some quality time in my sewing room!
Nice cutter, looking forward to cooler weather.
Looking forward to dinner with good friends Friday night!
We just got home from a lovely vacation, so I'm looking forward to spending some time at home!
I'm looking forward to hanging out with my boys since this is the first full week of summer together. Mom and Dad jetted off to Spain for a mission trip the day school was out so we are slowly getting used to our new schedule and Pacific standard time.
I am excited and so looking forward to seeing my 6 sweet and precious grand babies. Two of them are now old enough to teach sewing and quilting. ��
Cute rotary cutter!!! Its things like this that make quilting even more fun! I am looking forward to cutting out and finally starting my Weekender bag! And I too am organizing all of my scraps, thanks to my recent re-reading of Sunday Morning Quilts. Thanks for all the helpful advice, Amanda Jean!
Is today my lucky day?
I'm on a diet but I have a cheat day scheduled this Friday! Thanks for the chance to win!

I'm on a diet but I've got a cheat day coming up! :) thanks for the chance to win! -Carly
I am looking forward to finishing a baby quilt (this will be #3 in two weeks). And I need new blades just the size of the splash cutter! Thanks for the giveaway.

I've only heard good things about the splash, but I have to be honest - I would buy it anyway, just for the color!
The thing I'm looking forward to this week is the baby shower my mom is throwing for me over the weekend! With only a month or so to go, I'm equally excited to see everyone and to be able to start putting our nursery together after we get home!
1.) didn't know you we're a lefty! Me, too. :)
2.) I cut big projects at the kitchen counter because yeah--table height is killer on the back!! How nice that you have a tall table!
3.) I look forward to my 4-year-old taking a trip to Chicago with her aunties to have an adventure of a lifetime this weekend. Can't wait to hear all about it.
That could be a fun cutter! I like the color too.

One thing I'm looking forward to this week...Vacation which starts tomorrow! Can't wait to get to our favorite RV campgrounds and unpack & relax, then go tubing a few times over the next week, hopefully meet some new friends and go to the State Park that has dances every Sat of every month. But secretly waiting for it to be over with so I can finally get down & dirty with some quilting, but what a great way to start off before getting to some UFO's a nice Vacation & this time it's just hubby & I ALONE!!
I really do like the bright colors, and it seems to compliment your splash quilt so well as well! And I don't think this would be a cutter that would get lost on the floor (yes, mine do get lost occasionally).
Love the cutter! I'm looking forward to the weekend!!! Is it Hump day yet???
Well I'd really like to win a new cutter.
This week I am looking forward to none sewing things my 3 oldest granddaughters are on the swim team and have two meets this week that I get to go to and cheer them on.
For sewing I have some mending that I am happy to do .. It's a patch on my husbands pants my first patch was not large enough so he wore a new pant part out. I don't know why I do enjoy patching up his clothes... It might be that he asks so nicely and thanks me too

Looking forward to a wedding this weekend, and some time to quilt as well!

I'm also looking forward to going to a Canada Post outlet to mail some Miss U charity blocks to Cheryl, after having read about her charity drive on your blog :).
Lovely giveaway. I'd like to throw my name in the hat, as well. I've heard of this already, but it doesn't seem to be available in the UK yet.
I'm looking forward to some cooler weather!
I am looking forward to NOT traveling this week. Getting some projects done around the house and enjoying summer!
I'm looking forward to my mom visiting and making some aprons for my girls.
I plan to spend sewing time with my six year old granddaughter from Germany!
Thanks for sharing! And thanks for all the inspiration on your blog! I am quilting one of my great grandmother's quilt tops, and I'm looking forward to finishing it. Since it is a quilt from the 30's, I decided to hand quilt it. It's fun and relaxing, but oh so time consuming!
I'm looking forward to this afternoon when I have to leave work early to meet the security alarm guy at my house. That means I'll have time to cut fabric! Woot!
Thanks for the chance!

I am looking forward to finishing up my continuing education requirements to renew my professional license. Then I can get back to quilting!
I am SO looking forward to finishing a quilt for my grandson. It has been a long process.
Always love to see your posts and what you are up to.

Then, I am hoping and wishing for a Hexagon Die from Accu Quilt for my birthday this month so that I can start another hexie quilt! Fingers crossed and wishing! :D
I've always been too afraid of trimming my scraps into a certain square size. What if I need them to be a different size? But I guess if you have a quilt in mind it makes sense.
What fun colors! I'm looking forward to having extended family at my house this weekend.
This week I'm looking forward to a possible new job offer for my husband, which would mean a move to the same town as our grandchildren!
Love the colors on that cutter. I look forward to workin some more on my Dear Jane quilt. Thanks for the chance to win.

Looking forward to assembling my scrappy blocks while watching cycling's Tour de France. Here's hoping Chris Froome keeps on top form. What a sequel to Murray winning Wimbledon that would be!
This week I'm looking forward to getting together to sew with some friends. We call ourselves the Bostwick Babes after one of our favorite quilting authors. I'm looking forward to getting the new Splash rotary cutter when our local quilt shop has sale prices for the ladies in our end of July retreat.
I'm looking forward to Saturday night. My son will be at a sleepover and my husband is working, which means a whole evening of guilt free sewing for me!
My 6 year old granddaughter and I are starting a quilt for her where she will be learning cutting and simple sewing. She has the sewing down pretty good but wouldn't it be a fun cutter for her to add to her sewing box that I started for her at Christmas. It contains mainly thread and this would help it grow. Thanks so much, Dian
I'm looking forward to the weekend as the sunny weather(a rarity in Wales) is going to continue.
Cute cutter! I'm looking forward to binding a queen size quilt!!!
Great ideas, and hopefully, a new and better cutter will help me with all my scraps! Sign me up!
Would love to win - and what a good idea to cut a few squares. Must remember that! Along with all the other brilliant quilting ideas I hear but never seem to do....X
This week, I am looking forward to working on my modern quilt guild's latest challenge - so nice to finally have time to play with this project! Thanks so much for the chance to win this great cutter.
