Here are some pictures of fabric in various stages of sewing, cut using the pinking blade:
Picture 1: Fabric on the mat with the ruler ready to be cut.
Picture 2: Cutting fabric using the pinking blade. Note that the blade is right up against the ruler, in the same manner as it would be for a standard rotary blade.
Picture 3: Sewing pieces on the machine. Note that you can see the "teeth" made by the pinking balde in the blue and red pieces of fabric on the left, aligned with the 1/4" foot. The rightmost part (the outermost edge) of the "tooth" is what I align the foot to. Note that you will never get the teeth in the two pieces of fabic to match up when you sew them. That's fine, it makes no difference to the finished appearance of the quillt as this is inside your seam.
Picture 4: Pieces sewn and ready to cut.
Picture 5: Cutting sewn together pieces using the pinking blade.
