Oh the joys of ironing!!! Have I mentioned ironing is not my favorite things to do! lol But, in order to speed up the process (and knowning myself all too well) I sat down and cut and ironed and layered the fabric and flannel. This made stitching a breeze because I stacked up the fabric next to the machine and just had to hoop and hit start. Great way to kick out a lot of embroidery in a short period of time.
I'm not real talented with a rotary cutter so I opted for scissors. I never seem to be able to cut a straight line with the rotary cutter - even with a straight edge. I'm not concerned with straight edges on my fabric because I have to trim it down to 6 1/2 inches anyway and the fabric is sized to fit in my 5x7 embroidery hoop. I'm going to have tons of scraps once I start trimming...
