Georgene Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Very short video: 2:22 minutes. I just bought these last week. With these little snips, about $20, I can go to start point of panto or design and do a manual Needle Up/Down (using my handle buttons) then use these Snips to pull threads away without having to move machine. Then I hold onto the threads and tap Sew. It's much faster than the automated bobbin pull methods. To find them, google: todd's catch-n-cut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitepinesquilter Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Looks like a great product. I have a pair of surgical scissors at my machine that I use, and many times have used the "hook" end to catch stitches and remove them but always wished I didn't have to hold the other blade out of the way. Looks like this solves that issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreadWaggle Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 I have a pair from Famore that has a hook on one blade but is not as long. The hook blade and the other blade are the same length. They are awesome for when you have to pick out stitches. I also do the manual needle up/down instead of the bobbin pull. Waiting has never been a strong point for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klwheeler Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 These are my favorite snips and perfect for picking threads and pulling bobbin thread after needle down/up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowena Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Looks good, but I am left handed and don't think they would work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastquilts Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I have a pair of those and use them often. I love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 I just use a pair of curved cuticle scissors to pull the threads out, hold, start sewing or tack the thread down, and then clip. Inexpensive and it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
