Good scissors are such a blessing. I have trained my husband to keep away from my fabric scissors! He has his own pair of cheapies for cutting his coupons and other stuff...

I keep a supply of kids fiskars for everything but cutting fabric and sometimes I will even snip that with them.

I have many pairs of scissors myself my DH is always needing them. He gets a little frustrated when I say "What are you going to use them for?" And I hound him to get them back. My Cutco kitchen shears were always disappearing till I had a screaming fit...now they leave them alone! I told him that I'm gonna start going thru his tools and taking what I want and not put it back!! LOL

I don't think a sewist can have too many scissors! Wish I was there for the deal too!

my mom was in a nursing home, and she loved to crochet and do hand work. She has sissors tied on every door knob, dresser pull, chairs, etc. It was hard for her to get up and around, so she kept things handy and within arms reach. She loved sissors. Kids still joke about the sissors tied to everything. I am beginning to think like that myself!

Great deal. I also use Fiskars type scissors for the everyday stuff. I even have them marked for kitchen, desk, etc.
