yep sure do...when I worked at woolworths we had a machine that we zipped the fabric thru and it had a dial that measured it...when we got to the amount they wanted we crimped the handle and it snipped the edge and we'd rip it...It would work because the fabrics were all 100% cotton then..the blends won't rip straight. Geez..I am older than dirt huh? *LOL* thanks for the walk down memory lane..crafty_linda_b
