Those Fabulous Bernina tweezers!
And here they are… I just can’t function without these!
They have such a sharp but short bend to them, and they are fantastic for getting a hold of a thread. I use them on my longarm when a thread breaks and I have to unpick it an inch or two to tie it off. I’d have to unpick a lot further if I tried to tie the threads with my fingers, but with these tweezers I can tie amazingly short thread ends!
Above is a picture comparing the Bernina tweezers with a standard pair of bent tweezers. See the difference? The bent one are definitely better than straight tweezers, but there’s no comparison.
I might think about featuring a tool once a week, about why I like it and how I use it.
Thanks so much!
Oh man, I totally agree! I love those tweezers and would never be without them. Hmm, maybe I should buy another pair, just to be safe.
They’re the best! I wouldn’t mind an extra pair or two myself!
LOL, I was thinking about doing the same thing, CJ – a tool a week. What do they say about “great minds”? I LOVE my tweezers! I actually have a pair a tad different – although I have these as well. I’ll have to take a pic to show you them. And, I have NO idea where I bought them.
Was great today at SFTH, I actually got to run the Pro Stitcher on an HQ – Yeah, baby!! SWEET!
I think a tool a week would be fun! I want to see your tweezers!
The ProStitcher should be in your future, you would have so much fun with it! You love embroidery already, you’d take to computerized quilting like a duck to water
