Thank you! As to the batting. When I ragged it, some of the batting showed in places, so you have to be very careful to cut it in much smaller squares. If you use flannel however, it can be the same size and add to the ragging. So that would be easier to do.

I have seen the denim ones, and I'm going to try that. I don't think you need batting for those either.

I bought a walking foot today for my machine. I can't wait to try it. The lady at Joann's was very helpful and made sure I got one that would fit my machine. All of the Fisker products including cutters, replacement blades, mats and rulers were on sale (at our store at least).

Nancy, I used those scissors we were talking about again and it was much easier this time. I think I just wasn't used to using them that first time.
