The Kai “Patchwork” scissors are the bomb. They have a serrated edge, which is great for grabbing the fabric as you’re cutting curves. The smoothest curves I’ve ever cut. Lost one pair and replaced them immediately. I really like the 4” for smaller pieces, and the 6” for larger applique. Kai 3120 4 3/4 Inch Serrated Blade Patchwork Scissor
