Deluxe Seam Ripper

In quilting, cutting stitches is just as important as making them. Mistakes happen, but they don't need to ruin projects; seam rippers deliver the powerful opportunity for a re-do when it's needed most.

A seam ripper is a lifesaver when stitches refuse to behave. Delicate, yet precise, they are the best-kept secret of experienced quilters and even more valuable for novices.

Also referred to as stitch rippers, these handy tools make it possible to rip seams quickly and precisely. This is surprisingly easy: lay the fabric flat — with the desired seam face up — and place the seam ripper's point end beneath the stitches at one end of the seam.

Cutting with the blade will create a small opening. Next, remove the stitches one at a time and use the seam ripper's ball end to get the threads out. Keep an eye out for loose threads, which can be addressed with lint removers.

Skimping on tools is not an option; a dull seam ripper calls for more pushing and maneuvering — and could even snag on delicate fabrics. Unfortunately, some products grow dull far too quickly and could compromise your hard work.

Blade replacements can help, but there is no guarantee that these will be readily available. With Clover seam rippers, however, durable designs and ultra-sharp blades promise many hours of hassle-free seam ripping.

Clover seam rippers are reasonably priced, so it should be easy to replace the entire tool when the blade finally grows dull.

Don't forget about comfort: a strong handle grip will offer superior ergonomics and limit strain during those long hours of quilting. Avoid slippage with a secure grip that will keep you feeling confident through every stage of your quilting project.
