- As the years pass we all develop our own ways of working that, through sheer repetition, become a efficient successful means for producing a beautiful product. I've become so dependent on the mat and rotary cutter that I rarely use my scissors for cutting out patterns. However, a pair stays in my work apron for notching and clipping curves.
These three photos show how accuracy in cutting produces perfect flanges and the rear hidden zipper case. I've never been successful using scissors on the cut-out (although I'm sure it's possible!). I remain a faithful fan of the rotary cutting for home-decor sewing for its speed and accuracy.

- Hi Debra, I just saw your question on the Home page - exactly where I think one would post a question. Is your zipper application on apparel? Let me know; I'll help in any way I can. Peg
