Link: Scissors collection for Nina :) **edited for a pic of the antique scissors**
Nina asked last month if I would share my collection of scissors...it is not near the collection that others have-but I DO love my scissors and I add to them every chance I get. I am excited as I am going to be receiving a NEW "old" pair this month as DD's boyfriend is bringing them to me when he comes for a visit later this month :) My mom is crocheting me something to go under my scissors (and I have a backing fabric that goes under the crochet item she is working on-but with her shoulder continuing to bother her-she hasn't had a chance to finish it yet :) :) This is a glass enclosed display :) I have a few pair that are not shown-as they are with kits that I have not stitched yet-nor did I take the scissors from any of my scissors pockets and or keepers :)Or the pair of ginghers I am using currently :)
My favorite pair of scissors are the Ginghers in the bottom left corner-they are the SHARPEST moist pointiest(is that a word...) that I have-they were more than I wanted to spend on scissors-but I got them at a 40% discount when I worked for my LNS. They are AWESOME and I couldn't imagine not having them for some of the over one boo-boos that are made!!
These are the antique scissors that a lot of you have commented on (top left in display case)-we were fortunate and found these on one of our many "treasure" hunts...they need to be cleaned up-we have a jeweler friend that can do that for me.
I am stitching-but it's all gift related so I can't share :)
Thank you so VERY much for your visits-Please do come again :)
hugs and love from SC :)
Becky
