any fabric slippage. The Kai 5210 is the standard size handle and blade

DeleteThank you for the encouragement! I've not made a top yet. Only 2 dresses, 1 pair of lounge pants, and an apron! :-) I am almost done with a simple reversible dress for the PR.com contest, and hopefully I'll get that done in the month allotted! Maybe by next year I will be participating in Tops that Pop!!
