    Default Scissors with soft end, 3 size ?

    I am french, member of your group I appreciate very much. About one year ago, I read a post on scissors that had soft end (sort of plastic gum). The author of the post told there were 3 sizes, and gave a link to buy them. I have buyed one I think the size of embroidery scissors, (with blue ends and a signature on the metal hard to read : something like Karin Kay Bickley ?) it is wonderfull tu cut the fabric at 1/4 inch on paper pieced patchwork, very sharp and precise. I would like to buy the other sizes but I don't find the post, nor see them when I look embroidery scissors on Google. Can someone help me.
    Thanks

    Try www.KarenKayBuckley.com or google Karen Kay Buckley's Perfect Scissors and you'll see pictures of the different sizes.

    I have not finished the cover bed yet, each block of the sampler is 18 cm on 18 cm, and I have to do 2 rows more on each side...

    That is a very beautiful quilt. Exactly the kind of quilt that is my favorite. I am enjoying looking at it.

    Beautiful quilt!! Look forward to seeing many of your pictures. Most have problem with pictures because of the size. Generally I resize by half and have no problems. So if a picture won't post, try re-sizing (make smaller).
