Here's my thoughts on the cutter...it will be interesting (unless you don't care) how large of a piece of fabric (as in width) you can use. On the wool cutters, you have to cut and rip a piece and then run it thru...otherwise your fabric pulls it w/the weight to not make a straight cut. And, there sometimes is a bit of throw away waste when doing that. Just something to think about..:)But, then again...who can't love to play w/new sewing toys?!LOL Skeat
