That is intersting. i always learn something from this board.
what about stretching the fabric as you tear it? I have no clue, so just asking.
So far, my "modern" experiences are scissored cuttings. Even in my LQS.
Just a mind burp this AM and remembering the tightly "coiffed" hairred lady of J C Pennys. (late 1960's)
Thanks for teaching us something.
