    Run an emery board across the fabric. It will pull out those threads - works like a CHARM!

    Yes, I have used a electric beard trimmer to take out stitching, "borrowed" SO's to do it. Only problem was I got a cramp in my hand from holding it so tight to keep it above the material, but still cut the thread,
