My New Favorite Quilting Tool.....that we all probably use more than we like

I ran across this new seam ripper at a quilt shop. Let me tell you this is the best $6.50 I have spent on a quilting tool in a very long time. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. And the thread remover WORKS!!:thumbup:

that is interesting Cajun. Do the 'rubbing the seam' parts feel sort of flexible like bathroom caulk?

Of course I'll have to have one. I have as many seam rippers as I have scissors. The Fons and Porter big red and cream seam ripper handle will remove the cut threads too.

I had one of these in my hand ready to purchase at a recent quilt show and opted against it. Darn.

You can never have too many seam rippers! I will keep my eyes peeled for that one at my LQS. ( isn't "eyes peeled" a funny expression.)

No it is not flexible like bathroom calk, it is a hard rubber and does not flex.

You enabler you, Cajun. I saw this last weekend at Quilt Expo in Portland and thought to myself, I don't need another seam ripper. Guess what I'm doing this morning....

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

Oh, I REALLY NEED that!!! :thumbup:

I may order one. I like how it gets rid of those pesky threads!
