SBQ: Embroidery scissors

This week’s Stitch­ing Blog­gers Ques­tion is

Many of us have a few pairs of embroi­dery scis­sors and some even have a “col­lec­tion”. How many pairs of scis­sors do you have? Feel free to share a pho­to of your favorite pair or pairs with us!

I just have the one pair, but that pair is sacred! No one dares to use them for any­thing but the snip­ping of threads. 

It is actu­al­ly the lat­est in a suc­ces­sion of iden­ti­cal scis­sors that have served me well for many years. I pre­fer sim­ple scis­sors that func­tion well to dec­o­ra­tive ones.

What I’m miss­ing right now are good fab­ric scis­sors, as mine were used by an ex to cut PAPER. (That per­son fits much bet­ter in a size X.)

The piece is my favorite cur­rent WIP, Drag­on Dreams’ “Fairy Tale Sampler.”
