    many of you have asked where to find the tools---i purchased mine from "Nancy's Notions" a year or so ago....they were not very expensive...and i love them! i use them often- the swivel knife is a great tool for many projects and you can get replacement blades for it---in fact i believe it came with a couple extra blades- easy to change them too. the rotory cutter also i find so easy to use- the way you hold them gives you such good control; making precision cutting a breeze. since i do alot of applique of all sorts i find these to be my -go too- tools for cutting many shapes- they work great for cutting stencils and for paper projects too.

    I saw some recently at Hobby Lobby, but not in fabric, I can't remember where though.

    I have the knife and rotary cutter. I bought new blades for the rotary cutter but have been unable to figure out how to change it. Does anyone know how?

    From what I was told at the Quilt Shop where I bought my mini rotary cuter--they are disposable-there are no replacement blades for this Fiskars cutter. I bought to use on the Twister tool. I have been using my 28mm
    cutter and it is easier to handle for small projects. It takes a bit to get used to the finger cutter and the comfortable position for your finger.

    Hawaiian quilts are also on my bucket list-I found a pattern book of animal and floral designs for 3.99 at a Half Priced Book store
