My ruler handle gadget arrived today so I will be able to try it out tomorrow.
I have a car full of fleece! There are the 2 extra-large bags full of yards of fleece to cut into cat mats. There are also 2 medium bags of fleece baby sleeper sacks that have already been cut out and are ready to sew.
Oh, and a bag with a bunch of colors of nylon net fabric to cut into strips for crochet dish scrubbies. That bag doesn't take up very much room, though.
I'm not going to bother to take any other projects. I'm a little concerned that I won't have enough time to do anything but cut out the cat mats. When I put my work tote in the car today, it appeared to me that the bags of fleece fabric were larger than when I put them in the trunk a couple of days ago. Has the fabric fluffed up to look larger, or is it spontaneously breeding?
