Seam Ripper Tip/Trick/Tutorial

I guess I could say I didn't know any better, but I didn't know the proper way to use a seam ripper until I started blogging. I certainly don't remember who or where I learned this from out there in blogland....I'm sorry I can't give credit where credit is due, but learning this has saved me considerable time in ripping out my seams.....Heaven knows I do a fair amount of this. In this 'episode' of ripping I sewed one fabric to the wrong side.....anyway....you take your ripper and pluck through about every 5 to 8 stitches like shown.

Then you flip this over to the other side...grab the thread at the end on this side and pull gently and viola!!! Easy peasy!! I'm sure most of you already know this trick, but as I was ripping this out a moment ago I was thinking maybe there was someone else out there who didn't!

When I was growing up and learned to sew....this was our 'weapon' of choice for seam ripping!!!.....LOL....does anyone else remember this?

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
