Great idea!!
DOn't mean to pig trail here but I have a large emory file with a plastic handle (dollar store purchase for filing rough heels).
I use this to pick out threads when I have to seam rip. The emory grabs the threads so perfectly.

Thanks for this information. I was wondering what to use on those stubborn pieces of thread that stick.

Thanks for the tip. Can't wait to try it. It is amazing how many household items work for sewing problems.

If you have a "Big Board" what kind of ironing board do you use under it?
