fabric cutters
 

Has any one used an electric material cutter? Does it cut straight? what kind do you use? I had a shoulder operation and I cannot cut my fabric,and I am making a quilt for a wedding shower.

I remember my mother having electric scissors many decades ago (60's - 70's). If I remember correctly, they weren't too bad as long as they were sharpened correctly. Not sure that is what you are looking for or if they can even be purchased anymore beyond a thrift shop or yard sale.

I know that a friend of mine (lives in another state) is taking her fabric to be cut by her LQS. Is there a friend who can help you?? I don't think there is any way to use an electric cutter to cut straight.

I had those, in fact they're still in a box in my sewing room. They worked fine when cutting along a line for a dress pattern. There are lots of cutters available now that might help you, some electric and some not. However if your disability is temporary you might be better off getting a friend to help.

Check out the Go Big. It's electric and does all the cutting for you. All you have to do is watch.
