Did you know that you can sharpen your seam rippers? I looked on line because my favorite one has become a bit dull. Yes I know Sean rippers aren't very expensive. Anyway on line they recommended using a bead reamer to sharpen the ones that have become dull. I bought my bead dreamer set from Amazon for about $9.00 for the 4 peace set.
I got some bent nosed weeding tweezers with my Cricut and one day I could not find any of my seam rippers (and I regularly use 3 of them in my sewing studio). I grabbed those tweezers to see if I could use them to unpick a short seam. Wouldn't you know it, those things can unpick and rip seams like the best of my seam rippers. Love it when I can find a new use for a notion.

that is awesome! I've never thought of using that, and I believe you that it worked great!
Thanks. I’ve been using the seam ripper wrong for years ( I’m a guy) I just ordered a Grover seam ripper on Amazon.
Yay!
Clover is my go-to, but when my hands hurt, the Dritz Ergonomic one is a lot easier on my hands.
that's so good to know! thanks for sharing!
@@HeatherHandmade You're welcome!
I didn't know you could put the ball down and rip the whole seem. Thanks! Ok I might have but I haven't sewin in a while. LOL
Happy to help!
Slice has replacement blades with a pointy tip. I used their tools in my classroom since they are much safer than metal blades.
good to know!
That little blue one - can you put the cap on the back to make it longer and more comfortable? Some are like that.
i guess I am quite off topic but does anyone know of a good website to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Thatcher Sage lately I have been using flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Thatcher Sage Try Flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
@Thatcher Sage i would suggest FlixZone. Just google for it =)
Exactly. It wasn't a fair comparison.
Right now I am using a wawak but my favorite is a clover.
both are good!
