Dressmaking Scissors Gift Set - Dressmaking Heavy Duty 23cm and Thread Snips 10cm - Black

A gift for the sewer who has everything

Good scissors are the tool most sewers say they’d love to own, and they’re the one most of us put off buying. This set gets it right: a pair of premium dressmaking scissors for the big cutting jobs, and a matching pair of thread snips for everything small, finished in black and boxed up ready to give.

The dressmaking scissors

At 23cm (9in), these are heavy duty steel scissors, built for cutting fabric. They suit a variety of fabrics, so they’re a good all-rounder for a dressmaker, a quilter or a bag maker. The handles are black PVC and ergonomic, shaped to be comfortable in the hand through a long cutting session.

The thread snips

The 10cm (4in) snips are made for the small jobs: snipping threads, trimming yarn and cutting ribbon. They sit beside your machine or your hand sewing, so you aren’t reaching for your good scissors every time you finish a seam.

Ready to give

The set comes in a kraft paper gift box with a plastic lid, so it looks good without any extra wrapping. It suits birthdays, Christmas, Mother’s Day and thank-you presents, and it’s also a good treat for yourself.

Who it suits

• Dressmakers: cutting pattern pieces and trimming threads
• Quilters and patchwork makers: cutting fabric, and snipping threads at the machine
• Crafters and bag makers: cutting fabric and ribbon
• New sewers: a proper pair of scissors to start with

Looking after your scissors

Use them on fabric only, as cutting paper dulls the blades. Do not wash them. To clean, wipe with anti-rust oil, and store them closed and dry.
