I was really excited about doing it this way cause it sure seems like I can't cut through more than one fold without getting the dreaded "V." Thanks!
When ripping fabric you get straight rips but it does stretch the fabric. I always use a good startching and heavy steam allowing to dry before moving. This makes every thing go back into pace..
