The revolutionary thermo-sensitive ink vanishes from sight, leaving your quilt or sewing project free of lines and unsightly ghost marks.

The NANO Tip point of the shears is specially crafted for embroidery and detail work, and the rubberized comfort grip handles allow the user to craft without pinching or rubbing. The 8.5 inch fabric scissors cut through multiple layers of fabric easily. The Thread Snips offer a fine tip for precise cuts, ensuring final products are clean and tatter-free.
