New scissor update: Tried out my new scissors today. Thought I had better as Dennis thinks I will not use them. They cut nice, but sill prefer my old ones. Suppose I will get used to these in time. Shirley

Hopefully you will come to love them not because you HAVE to, but because they work well for you. Hope it does not take too long to adjust. Being you had to get the limited edition maybe you should think about creating or designing a special scissor holder for that pretty pair of blades.
Hope it gets easier to adjust.

They came wih a leather case to protect the blades. Hope I will love them as much as my old ones in time. Thanks. Shirley

These would be fine for fabric cutting, my favorite scissors to use around designs or appliques are the stork scissors, I had gotten 3 pair on clearance at walmart probably 5 years ago or so. They are a short sharp pointy to get in those little corners where your scissors are pointing to in the photo. Not sure what brand I have but probably available in many? Very cute bear!

I have always used my Mundail to cut these little bears with no difficulty in the little corners. The bears are sewn on felt so the stork scissors may not work, but I do hace some and will give them a try. Thanks

I've heard of Mundial they sound super nice!

They are. Can't find them where I live now. Have had the others for about 30 years or more.

I'm not sure where you live but there is a catalog from wawak that has them in it, various brands and types as well threads and all kind of sewing goodies. They have a website www.wawak.com too.

Good to know that you have taken the 'first cut' with them. I am sure as time goes on you will love them as you do the others you own. Surprising how it takes us time to get used to something new.

I will just have to get used to them. They cost enough.
