    If you have never used these scissors before, you are going to love them. I bought a pair of these a couple of years ago as a spare, because they were on sale. Now I have my expensive Ginghers put away and use these all the time. I love them. Like your fabric as well.

    Nanjun, they are great for cutting blocks. Take them out and use them. In a joint venture a friend and recently made a frayed block denim and cotton quilt for an 80th birthday gift. She was using a very small pair of scissors to cut the seam sapaces to fray, because they were sharp. I was cutting in another are with a pair of these and did almost three times as much as she did in the same time period. Mine have remained very sharp. I love them. Try yours.

    Love those scissors. I have two pair. They are the only ones besides my rotary cutter that do not bother my arthritis.

    Yummy fabric.
