Spring loaded scissors definitely make the job easier. I have used another brand but bought the Heritage ones because everyone raves about them. I'll use them on the next rag quilt.

I have only made them with the Accuquilt cutter and the rad die; that's the way to go. I'm in the process of making several now. I have a brand new as of this morning DGD, another little girl due the end of Oct and a 1yr old DGD and another Great grandchild due in April. Lots of quilts to make

I just got back from Joann's half hour ago. They have the Fiskar's rag quilt snip ones for $24. They had a 50% off sale on scissors, so I ended up paying only $12 for mine.

Joann's has had some great sales and coupons lately. If you haven't signed on as a preferred customer yet, I recommend it. I've seen several sales for scissors at 40 to 60% off and they also have given out several coupons online at 50% off one regular priced item. I'm hoping there will be something similar for the after Christmas sale. I need more fabric for the quilt I'm currently working on. I under-estimated how much I would need for the top and I haven't bought any at all for the back yet.

I bought a pair of Fiskar rag scissors and I like them. I had a 40% coupon, that helped.
