I need to remember to use these things! Pretty sure the scallop shears will get plenty of use, but not sure about the punches. Great to have the option though, for sure. I saw a photo on flickr that recommends that you layer the felt with paper to get a cleaner, quicker cut. I'll have to try that.<br /><br />Olivia, hmmm. You are so right.<br /><br />PinkSuedeShoe, your husband is quite the MAN for being tuned in enough to know that scallop shears would bring you joy. Where'd you find this guy?<br /><br />Bob, I caught myself thinking 'these are almost a little too perfect looking, not sure I like it' when I was whacking out test samples. This is the kind of counter productive thinking that will prevent me from ever being able to produce anything in large numbers.Larissa Hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901400647777521741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869766342171493242.post-16081187516120451312011-02-28T22:39:49.948-05:002011-02-28T22:39:49.948-05:00Those punches are awesome, I'm sure you'll...Those punches are awesome, I'm sure you'll get tons of use out of them!
