Seam Fix Seam Ripper

Recently I was in a local quilt shop

and saw the

Seam Fix Seam Ripper

on display right at the front counter.

I've heard of this nifty little notion

and for $7 thought it was worth a try.

Have you seen it 

or tried it yet?

In a perfect world, 

we would not need seam rippers.

But, in MY World

I need to keep one 

close at hand :)

You use the seam ripper part first,

and then rub the fabric with the white rubber ends 

to clear away the stray threads.

I gave it a try, and it really works!

I have a friend with arthritis

who struggles with finger dexterity

and she feels this tool is quite helpful.

Heirloom Creations 

has done a short little demo

I found out there 

are also

 Electric Seam Rippers?!!!

oh my
