I learned alot at the sewform... when I was at the Creative Sewing in Toronto... I think this is a great tip .. using a man 's side burn trimer to ripe out stiches...it won't cut the material and is fast to ripe out stitches...I thought that was a great Idea...we were all trying it out ...and it worked great...It was a conair cost $13.00 Bren:

That is going to go down well with Tony, discovering his beard trimmer has been shaving my stuff!  It's bad enough with the little bits of cotton around the place as it is let alone finding them in his beard as well...is this for taking out machine embroidery Bren, as I can't see it would be much use on a seam? love and kisses, Jan

| Believe it or not, Clotilde sells one, too, on her website and from the catalog. She recommends turning it upside down, did they suggest that at the workshop? |
