But the sicssors that I bought from this demo I've treasured every since, KAI brand. Best I've ever had.

This could have been written by me, word for word. I got the pattern for the vest by volunteering to have my
measurements taken by the salesman, and it does fit nicely. I also get two pairs of pants....sometimes I go back
and get another to take apart for a pattern, which tells you how much I've used that expensive pattern making system!
And I do agree that the sicssors I bought there were and are marvelous. I used to hide them from husband and kids, with threats of no more desserts if anyone at all touched them!!! Still working nicely, sharp and clean cutting. Worth every cent I paid for them, but as for the pattern making system, I haven't really given it a fair trial. But since I also got mine in the late 1980s.........maybe someday.
