lesserthan1 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Following the success of the film about the steelworks, I was trying to remember the name of the short I saw about making scissors... And finally I've remembered. It's called The Putter and it's on Vimeo. Was filmed at Ernest Wright & Son, and apparently after it went online they sold two years worth of stock in a day. Great film. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms-Shapes Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Ernest Wrights are very busy at the moment - trying to get scissors made and sent off around the world. I managed to get a pair of their kitchen scissors for a present from their shop, before the next batch was dispatched. Good to see that this small company is doing so well.

Carmen. Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 How wonderful. I am a sewer and appreciate your joy at receiving beautifully crafted embroidery scissors. Enjoy them. I would love to learn a little of your work. What do you embroider? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to learn a little of your work. What do you embroider? I'm mostly a knitter these days, so the scissors will spend most of their time snipping wool. I used to do hand embroidery, stumpwork and a wee bit of machine embroidery. I mostly look at pretty pictures in books and magazines and on blogs now. I did lots and lots of cross stitch too, but not for a while. I'm slowly getting back into sewing, but I mostly knit, crochet, spin and dye. Those must be your quilts I've been seeing in your avatar. They're very good, if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
