Description: I'm surprised how often people ask me how to cut a straight line in fabric--which is an important skill to know! So let me show you some simple tricks for straight lines...and then my FAVORITE trick for cutting fabric on a curve. This is great when you need to trim the bottom of a circle skirt, or any circular shaped project.
