    question on seam rippers

    I have a terrible time with seam rippers. They get dull so fast. I have tried different ones but have the same problem. What is the best one that stays sharp for a longer period of time.

    Sometimes it is not the right time to finish a quilt. Start the new one and when that one gets old you may want to take a break and finish the first one. I do that a lot.
