I like to make simple fabric book marks with scrap strips. I use the pinked or wavy rotary blade in my olfa cutter to finish the edges, sew down the middle and around the 4 sides. Easy peasy!
I would like to know what others make using their wavy blades? Thank you!

What a clever use of all those little scraps! I have a wavy blade that I bought years ago. I only used it once, I think, and haven't even thought about using it since. I can't even remember what I ever used it for that one time... !
I hope you get some good ideas.

Very nice! I had one and it didn't cut, even brand new. Finally the other day I gave up and trashed the blade and replaced it with a straight one, since I needed another rotary cutter for my travelling kit. Perhaps I should try again. I use my pinking shears a lot since the rotary cutter didn't work. I would probably use it mostly for making cards with fabric that I want to apply raw-edge to a card front. I think it would be very handy for cutting flannel for quilts to help with the fraying aspect of flannel. Also for cutting felt for ornament backings.
Cute bookmark!
