this is the most stunning darning egg I have ever seen...I collect them...if you ever want to part with it, let me know!

I have 3 or 4 pinking shears...different sizes...love and use them all....

I have never liked pinking shears, so don't use them, but they still do sell them, so someone must use them. LOL

I still use mine and they are left-handed shears, that way
I can truthfully say, OH Dear, sorry, you are right handed, they won't work for you. I learned a long time ago not to loan
out pinking shears. My friend didn't even know she had wrecked them.

Have pinking shears and a darning egg. Use the pinking shears to cut corners on fabric before washing to prevent raveling threads.

That is a beautiful darning egg! I have a few (yes, I use them LOL) but nothing as lovely as yours!

I have a huge pair of Gingher pinkers and I can barely maneuver them. Too heavy and too bulky.

I use my pinking sheers for applique when I follow El Burns' method of stitching the pieces to fusible interfacing. It also good for trimming curved seams before pressing, since it eliminates the need to clip, which can result in an uneven curve.

I use mine mostly for projects using felt, like gingerbread men, etc.

The last jelly roll I purchased was cut with very tiny pinking shears (cutters).
