I have been switching all my cutting tools to Ginghers beause they are the best quality! I have 3 Gingher shears, a pinking shears, a rotary cutter and my most recent purchase - a Gingher thread clippers. I have 3 - 50% off coupons that will available for use on October 9, so off to Joann's I will go for a Gingher seam ripper!
