Hi, costumers, I do lots of sewing things. But I can't get pinking shears to work for me. I have a new pair of Ginghers and an old pair my brother used all the time in his various design and sewing businesses, so they must have worked for him. I would believe they might need sharpening, but I doubt the Ginghers do yet, and both do the same thing, so I think it is my (lack of) technique. The shears do not make a nice zigzag cut. They kind of squish and shred the fabric, and sometimes don't even cut. I am pretty sure the Ginghers are as sharp as they're supposed to be; but I actually have somewhat better luck with my brother's old shears. Does the fabric have to be under tension or something? Thanks! Lauren Lauren M. Walker lauren.wal...@comcast.net
