Thanks for sharing......Happy quilting :)

Looks like a wicked little tool! http://www.anniescatalog.com/list.ht...go.x=14&go.y=7

for what? mustache and eyebrow trimmers? Original poster gave a link for the ripper. The electric one shows up at the bottom of that page.

I have the surgical steel blade style ripper..........and although it may look scary at first..........you learn quickly how to use it fast and with confidence and NO cuts to fabric rather then ripping only seams. I have gifted these to friends who also love it.

I know my doctor/quilter friend swears by them ;-) I think i will pick up a couple to try, soon.

Dear Pollytink, I sure hope you feel better. Marcia....aka BA

I have one of those and thinking of getting a couple more for when I can't find the first one! :-) Love it, it is my "go to" ripper. I bought it mainly to relieve jammed stitches on my embroidery machine but find I am reaching for it for all kinds of things like sewing, or hand embroidery that I don't like after I did it, etc. Oh yes, I don't rip all the time - - - - I do get things made. :-)

I think it is a wicked little tool. Maybe my learning curve is too long....when I used it I kept cutting my fabric. Usually just one thread so it didn't show right away but sure did once it once together....not happy. It is in the "I'll never use this tool again" drawer.

DebraK, I bought one of those battery operated seam ripper thingys it works so/so I find it hard to hold the 2 fabrics apart with my left hand while trying to hold the button down to use the ripper and a couple of times I've shaved the fabric so I would say not to get one but thats MHO.

I love my Seam Fix Ripper too! Although I bought mine from a quilt shop, I saw them in a Walmart recently.
