I agree here. let the LAer know what happened if it's been recent. I helped my neighbor "skin' a king size. I grabbed my 28mm rotary cutter. It's small enough and doesn't cramp the hands. Very little pressure and works like a charm. just spread the backing with a small amount of pull and slide the rotary cutter down. When she saw me do it, she got hers out and we had it done within 30 minutes. Did not cut into any fabric. We started with the binding. You just press the blade barely against the thread and away you go. I use my 28 mainly for issues like these.

I agree though with showing the quilt to the LA'er so she can know what happened in case her batting was just bad.
