I use the rotary cutter for cutting quilts. It's much more accurate to cut with a rotary cutter. When you cut with scissors the material being cut will gradually creep away from the blade towards the end of the cut.

Rotary cutter except for snipping threads. My choice: 45mm blade, and I like the ones that automatically put the safety cover over the blade when you lay them down (they're yellow--don't remember the brand.) oh--and of course, I get my replacement blades from Harbor Freight tools, for about $1/ea! :D
