    Neesie, you can use coupons at JoAnn's for scissors. Of course, that depends on whether or not you have a JoAnn's near you. Regardless of where you get them from, they are wonderful scissors to have.

    Thanks but I already ordered some Kai bent scissors from Amazon.com, yesterday.

    My nearest JoAnn's is well over half an hour away and usually pretty disappointing. The past several times I've gone there, I couldn't find anything I wanted to buy. Seems whenever they have a good coupon, they put most of their good stuff on 'sale' so that the coupon can't be used. Their 'sale' prices are pretty pathetic and seem to only serve the purpose of excluding the item/fabric from being eligible for coupon use. All in all, I only go there if I'm truly desperate.

    Nessie, I agree with you about JoAnn's and their coupons. I go in figuring I can really pick up some stuff I need with coupons only to find out the items I want are on sale and can't use the coupon. My closest JoAnn's is more than and hour away.

    and embroidery but I just wasn't quite sure in which way. Mainly
    the rubber ends of the seam fix, and the "hook".

    I went to Harbor Freight several years ago and found a package
    of 3 hooks, each hook was different, I KNEW they would work for
    something.

    I already use the hair ties, so that is not a new idea for me. I
    have been coveting those double bent scissors for a long time
    just haven't bought them. I am going to buy them NOW.

    As for that fussy cut ruler? oh heck yeah I want one of those.

    Here is the link to the video.

    thanks for the video I enjoyed it! Along with the page, love the flip flop Font.

    I just received my order from Shoppers Rule today.

    Got the 3 pair of embroidery scissors, and the "fussy cutter"
    ruler.

    All I can say at this time is SUPER WOW!!!!!!!! love the scissors.
    Can't wait to try the ruler either.
