Whether you thought about it before, are in the process of doing it now, or wrote it off as something only women and homemakers did because it is still considered taboo in most cultures, learning to sew for yourself has more benefits than just mending a hole or putting a button back on a shirt.
Anyone who has ever sewn or attempted to sew a garment, slip cover, or even remove a button knows the wonders of the infamous…. ‘seam ripper’. Small in stature, but powerful in its effect, the seam ripper has no moving parts, yet moves quickly and somewhat effortlessly through seams erroneously done in haste. Featuring a curved blade on one side and a small ball point edge on the opposite to help protect against fabric damage, seam rippers are the next best thing to the ‘undo’ icon on the computer.
