    You can Google Vicki's FAbric Creations. She has a pattern I believe similar to Cherrio's statement. I also went to office supply store and found great heavy pencil holder with 3 compartments for needle work scissors (smaller size), paper use scissors, and fabric and rotary cutters.

    Fat Cat Patterns has a free pattern for a wall hanging that has a pair of scissors in it. http://www.fatcatpatterns.com/freeimages/fcp_nqd.pdf

    Also, Carol Doak has a free pattern on her website that is a tool roll. It involves paperpiecing and piecing.

    How about making a traditional template quilt where you have to cut it out with scissors? (as opposed to a rotary cutter) Or applique, I usually use scissors when cutting out applique shapes.
