My 9 year old granddaughter is learning to sew. She made an apron while visiting me. She did fine except she's left handed and didn't do well with regular scissors. I'm looking for info on where I can get some good, but inexpensive left handed fabric cutting scissors.

Ginghers's lightweight (black plastic) are wonderful. They are not too much, under $20 and with a coupon at JoAnn's, very affordable. They are for both left and right, but work well for me - I am very left handed. Gingher's expensive left handed scissors are true left handed and I can't cut with them.

I never could find a comfortable pair of left handed scissors.. I've ended up with Fiskers Bi-handed.... u adjust( I've sewn all my life with right handed scissors in my left hand.. just got my bihanded scissors a few years ago... same with everything else... tools, etc)
