About ripping fabric. there is a store here in town that sells fabric by the pound,I have never been there,but a friend of mine went there and made her selections and then went to the "cutting table'' to have them measured out and cut.the girl measures and rips them, my friend about had a coronary,she asked the girl not to do that to cut them with scissors, the sales girls said that is how we do it,my friend repeated her request not to rip the fabric and she did it anyway.my friend turned around and walked out.Now I have heard that ripping is a more accurate way of "cutting" the cloth,I disagree any thoughts?
