Here is what I was taking apart
I hate seam rippers! I use a sharp pair of scissors, or a surgical seam ripper. I have arthritis in my hands and can't use those tiny seam rippers. To me they do more damage to fabric than good. I try to be very careful to sew right the first time so I don't have to remove stitches. Surgical scissors have a spring loaded handle and very sharp curved points and do a wonderful job.
