Image gallery for: Cutting 180 squares in 5 minutes 👏 you should never be in a hurry when your cutting fabric and i’m usually one to slow down and enjoy the process but let’s face it sometimes saving a little bit of time is necessary… especially when you’re doing a big project like this 🫣 i need over 1 200 squares for this quilt so this method was a life saver if you’re going to try this here are a few things i found helpful change your rotary blade it’ll be easier to cut through multiple layers of fabric with a brand new blade mine was relatively new but not right out of the package and you can tell maybe try a 45 mm or 60 mm rotary blade i’m using a smaller one here but a bigger one is always helpful when cutting through lots of layers align fabrics as best as you can prior to cutting i usually use my selvedge as a rough guide start small if this is your first time trying this maybe only start with two or three fabrics rotate entire mat to square up edges and cut pieces assess fabric frequently use the lines on your ruler to make sure everything is staying square with 90 degree angles use measurements on your ruler instead of your cutting mat for a more accurate cut go slow there’s no rush remember that this is a time lapse 😉 do you do this what other tips can you add now i’m back to cutting ✂️ loandbeholdpatterns
