new2q are you sure you are not me, what you wrote is what i go through all the time HAHA!!
wizkid what size of cutter do you have, I have 3 diffrent sizes, the not cutting part i agree with the others is the blade sharp, is it clean (sometimes fabric dust gets behind my blades) I take my blades cutters apart and sharpen and clean them. Also some of my cutters have safteys on them make sure that is off. Hang in their and keep trying. you will be quilting in no time
