Suzanne's Tip of the Week - Cutting Table Solutions Part 2
 |
One of our customers wrote me that bed risers were also good to use for raising a table for rotary cutting height. At this time of year they are plentiful in the stores because the college kids use them to make extra storage under the bed in the dorms.
Happy Quilting,
