I took out a new blade after cleaning my rotary cutter.
I oiled my blade with a bit of WD40.
I then gave it another shot! Unfortunately, it was still like running a knife through cardboard. Oh well, I tried! What could also be an issue is my rotary cutter. Is it possible that it works in some rotary cutters and not in others? Regardless, I am very thankful for the suggestions!!! I have learned a lot through blogging and so grateful that I have gotten to know other wonderful bloggers out there!
I was able to cut my strips out for the Charlotte's Baskets Quilt (with a different blade). On Wednesday, I may be able to sew for an evening with the ladies at my local quilt shop! I am very excited!
I bought some a while back but haven't tried them yet.I will soon though.
ReplyDeleteI bought some of these blades also after reading about them on several Yahoo groups. They just chewed my fabric. Waste of my time and thankfully only a little money.
