Consumer grade whetstones are completely unsuitable for maintaining fabric shears. Maintaining a consistent bevel on stones that coarse is damn near impossible, and you're most likely going to ruin the mate between the cutting faces beyond repair.

("well I sharpened mine with an unoiled chunk of arkansas asphalt and they cut even better now": no you didnt, you're cutting with the burr, it won't last, I hate you.)
