It's official, my eyes are starting to go. Trying to trim some HST's for a friendship block for my guild, I realized that the green fabric is exactly Olfa green and blends perfectly into my cutting mat. Adding insult to injury, the finished size of these little guys is 2 1/8". I cannot see the edge of the fabric under my ruler to save my life. Lucky for me I remembered I have a June Tailor cut & press which has a gray mat or I would be doomed.
For all of those who have always had bad vision, and anyone older enough than me that they are just laughing at my plight, I am sympathetic. I grew up with pretty good vision and didn't get my first glasses until my late
30's. Now I get to gloat as DH, who has always had better than 20/20 has to sometimes look for the "sweet spot" to read really small print. Woe to eyes over 40.-- Loren in Seattle
