    Default There is a Swiss Army Knife for Quilters!

    Unfortunately, there is a drawback- they appear to be crazy expensive. <whiny voice> But it has a rotary cutter on iiiiiitttt.<end whiny voice>

    Well, we can enjoy pictures for free, at least. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bernina-Sew...orig_cvip=true

    Wow, how cool! Not too sure I'd like to carry around a rotary cutter, though. I'm dangerous enough with the one I use on my sewing table. I'd carry many bandaids for sure!

    OMG!! I want it! Just for the conversations it would start, not to mention all the times I've been stuck in the woods with nary a rotary cutter or measuring tool in sight! Oh that is just priceless!

    Okay, Ginger, I've got to ask: why would you need a rotary cutter in the woods? I'd think a chainsaw or bow saw would work better...but then again, why not a rotary cutter? You could use it to cut flower stems, trim tiny branches. oh I don't know...quilt while DH is off with his chainsaw? Love your response.

    Don't think I need one at that price.

    I think that is so cool! I love collectibles and would definitely like one of these to go along with my other sewing collectibles. The price is a bit steep but I might spring for it just to have one.

    If anyone buys the knife, please let us know where you purchased it. I'd love to own one.
