I thought you were to cut fabric with a pair of sissors, after looking at the Rotary one, I will just use a Utility Knife with a new blade, I think that should work.

Edited because I overquoted

Without a rotary cutter I would use a pair of sharp sissors...I would think a utility knife may be a bit dangerous...

It might not run smoothly over the fabric as a rolling blade does, might end up bunching up the fabric and messing it up.

Watch those rotary blades ! I cut the end of my finger off a few years ago. Had it sewn back on. Ouch !!!!
