Precutting Instructions: Follow cutting instructions on page 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 for the THROW size (mark with arrows / glow tape so you do not miscut)
Do not work ahead with construction! Please
Use the paper plate method or ziploc bags for labeling your cuts. If you are not comfortable with subcutting, then at least cut the strips. We will not be working on sewing this project until Thursday am so you will have Wednesday evening to cut some if needed. Just keep in mind there is only one large cutting station.
