Congratulations on getting a sewing machine. For cutting any fabric you will need a good quality pair of scissors, buy the best you can afford and only use them for fabric. If you have children hide them away in a secret place as they will be easily blunted by card or paper.
I'm not a sewing person but my mum was and she always said this to us kids. Now I'm grown up Ive aways wondered if it was such a big issue, can't you just re sharpen them? My knife sharpener has a slot for scissors too, wouldn't that be good enough?0
