I was at Eleanor Burns' QIAD website watching the Jewel Box #1 video and she was using a ruler that had a rotary cutter attached.
Has anyone here bought these?
Do you like it?
Or, if you don't, what didn't you like about it?

I have the Fiskar's one I bought years ago when I first saw it in the fabric store. It uses a 45mm rotary blade and I bought it thinking it would be safer to use then the regular rotary cutter and it was something new. I like new quilting tools. I put a new blade in and couldn't get the holder back together and Fiskar's sent me a new blade holder free. I think it was beyond it's time, and would sell much better now.

The cutting Edge now has one. You can see it online. I tried it at Houston and it didn't work for me with my hands.

I still love my Alto's QuiltCut2!

I bought one that's endorsed by Donna Dewberry, bought it at Joann's, in Wisconsin. I wish we had a Joann's closer to me here in Alabama.
