Huh. I just tried it towards me and it was incredibly awkward - and I didn't have nearly the strength I do when I cut it away from me. I guess it's just what you're used to.
I have done the crossover (right hand over left hand) cutting towards me when cutting squares and I'm too lazy to turn the fabric. I KNOW that's not going to end well for me one of these days. ;-)
