On the 8th Day of Christmas...

We posted this bad boy on the blog last month and it was such a hit that we decided it needs to be in EVERY quilters stocking this Christmas!
This nifty Seam Ripper with LED Magnifier is considered the new secret weapon of quilters, sewers and embroiderers!
Here is some info about this cool little gadget...
 Mighty Bright's innovative model integrates both a light and a magnifier into one cleverly compact unit. The seam ripper features a sharp metal blade that unfolds from the main handle. It allows you to tackle seams and buttons with a genius combination of illumination and magnification.

A 1.25″ lens quadruples the image size of your blade and stitch. The enlarged area is brightened by an energy-efficient LED, bringing details into sharp focus. Its ergonomically shaped handle offers a comfortable grip as you rip, snip and cut away. Durable ABS plastic construction and three micro cell batteries keep the weight at a minimum. The Seam Ripper is an incredible value for a slender dynamo. It fits nicely into any sewing kit, until you’re ready to get down to business ripping seams!

Barb said...

Unfortunately I find myself having to "unsew" more often than I care to admit and my eyes aren't what they use to be so I think this cool item will be just the thing the make my "unsewing" easier!! :)

Linda said...

I'd like this lighted seam ripper because - it should make it easier to perform a boring task and save on the old eye strain. And I'm all for both of these!

kshackabq said...

Just signed up to follow. That little magnified seam ripper would be a very helpful tool! Thanks for the chance to win.

scottylover said...

How the heck did I miss this the FIRST time you posted about it?? I would LOVE to have one in my stocking! The older I get the harder it is for me to see the little stitches I need to rip, s this would be perfect!

marogez said...

What a neat little gadget! I agree with most of the posts I need this getting close to the big 5-0 and it is harder to see those tiny stitches!

quemadorose said...

This a great tool for someone like me who's eye sight needs a little more help then they used to.

Judee said...

I call my seam ripper Jack and he sure needs a new pal. this tool would be great for my aging eyes.

Michelle said...

Oh Wow!! Not only do I follow this blog, I do a lot of "unsewing". Several friends have this seam ripper and love it.

emmy said...

I found a small pair of scissors with an optional magnifying glass, but this surpasses that notion. This would be perfect for the dark fabrics and thread; black and black especially.

Renea said...

I have never seen this new seam ripper. Would love to be able to try it. thanks for the great giveaway.

Staci said...

I am new to sewing/quilting and I LOVE gadgets. This is right up my alley. :)

Piecepatcher said...

This is one handy gadget! I definitely need one of these. On second thoughts I need one to give to a student who has macular degeneration.

Linda V said...

I am a new follower. Thanks for the super giveaway!

Patty D from NC said...

I follow Getting old and definately need this.

Ann said...

I've never seen this tool before, how wonderful! I certainly can use all the help I can get since my vision is not what it use to be!

Elisa said...

Why do I want this gadget? BecauseI'm finally admitting that I'm getting older... And need it more often :) thanks for the chance!

macbeaner said...

this is so cool! My seam ripper is my best friend!

Carolyn (Burgess) Hughey said...

This is the prefect tool for us over 60s. The eyes aren't what they used to be.

LeAnne said...

I want one of these because my eyesight is very quickly getting worse. I hate getting old!

KMSC said...

As I get older, my eyes get tired more easily. This tool will really help me "unsew" with less eyestrain.

Darlene Gerber said...

My eyes sure could use the breat that this tool would give them!!!

Cecilia said...

Santa really needs to bring me one of these.

ShirleyC said...

I'm a follower, and like everyone on here, I NEED and WANT this! I have to keep buying stronger reading glasses just to use for ripping out seams and doing hand sewing.
Ripping out machine embroidery is the hardest. This is just a must have tool for me because I'm always ripping! LOL

Marilee said...

Every sewer/quilter I know needs this new and improved tool. I must find one.

Liana said...

Wow, that looks like an amazing little gadget!

Seam rippers work hard in my house (lol) so a seam ripper with a magnifying glass would be very much appreciated by this short sighted stitcher. I am already a Follower of this inspirational blog too.

Kellieann said...

Love Love love it.

Beth said...

I have to take off my glasses to rip out a seam I need this but have not seen this in our town

Oh the visual challenges that age brings.. one day you can read that fine print, and thread that needle and the next.. POOF.. how does that work??

Phyldar said...

At 62 I can use all the help I can get - especially when I flub my stitching during a senior moment! Santa, I really need this in my stocking this year *Ü*

abc bug said...

Evelene S said...

Oh Santa I wanted this so bad but I was late to the game!

Keri said...

I just got back into quilting and sewing after many years away from it. I am doing a lot of seam ripping and these old, tired eyes could sure use this product. :)

Karen said...

Who doesn't need a great seam ripper?? And for those of us with maturing eyes, the light is fantastic.
