I was cutting 4.5 inch strips to use in my sons' Christmas quilts, and about the 5th strip in things all of a sudden seemed a little small. I got about 12 inches into the strip (length) and I realized it was only 4.25 inches that I had just cut. ERGH! I didn't lose a lot of fabric thankfully and had more than enough for what I was doing, but I've made that mistake before and it was very costly! Measure twice, cut once! LOL!!
