I just started taking quilting classes (not my first time however) and the teacher told us about this seam ripper. The entire class had to buy one, think we cleaned out the shop on this one. "seams to work GREAT!" this is now my BFF!!

However, I've always found that an emery board does a very good job of snagging those tiny loose threads!

I was at that show too, sure had the isles between the quilts small. I'm not very big but it was kind of tight in a crowd.

I bought one just yesterday at our metro quilt shop hop here in Phoenix. I love it. Unlike my Clover seam ripper it has a top - a useful top - and it fits my hand. I need fat handled tools. Easier to use with my arthritis.
