Did your Mother ever tell you " Try it, you'll like it." ?
I have one better than having to eat your brussel sprouts!
I'm sure all you sewers, be it quilting or other things have had to rip out or "unsew" seams or stitches!
Well, I found a very expensive seam ripper with a rubber tip on the end. When you take out stitches, you have all those little threads which are a pain to remove from the needle holes. I thought "If rubber will do it, why spend all that money for a seam ripper?" So.............. out of my drawer came a simple, cheap eraser! The big kind, I can hold in my hand! Walla! It worked like a charm! All you have to do is rub the eraser over those little threads, and they come right out!
HeHeHe! Didn't I tell you.."Try it, you'll like it." ?
Very clever! Now why didn't I think of that??? LOL Thank you for this post. Of course, I never use my seam ripper, I alway sew straight. (eye roll here)
ReplyDeleteI never use mine either! I have a little fairy who comes in at night and wears mine out!
