    Default Does anyone else hate cutting fabric?

    I don't know why I detest cutting fabric so much - I guess it's all the measuring and trying to get everything cut just right all while ds is pestering me. I used to think that I hated hand-piecing, but I have decided I would rather sit and sew by hand any day than to be slicing fabric with my rotary cutter. Anyone else feel this way?

    I don't much like the cutting out part either. Fortunately I have sils who prefer to cut than piece together!

    I don't have the patience for quilting right now. I keep hoping that at some point in time I will, but it really unnerves me, so YES I hate cutting, piecing and sewing fabric Kahana. I do sometimes like to sew crafty things, like I did a bagazillion stuffed bunnies in the early 90's but other than that I don't wanna.

    I don't mind cutting so much. Sometimes it gets a little hard on the back cause my table isn't tall enough. I just keep thinking about what a PITA it would be if I had to use scissors!
