I too have embroidered teeny tiny lettering on my Brother and Babylock and had to remove stitches. I purchased an extra-fine pointed jewelers tweezer at Hobby Lobby. The points are small enough to get under a stitch and gently pull it up, just enough to take an Easy Kut scissors and snip the stitch with the scissors' fine points. I use a magnifying lens to see the stitches so I don't get near the fabric. I will snip every few stitches and the tweezer helps loosen up the threads for easy 'kutting' or pulling out the stitches with the tweezers. It takes a little time, but worth the effort, as these two items together with the magnifying lens works very well.
