Embroidery scissors

The law prohibits the sale of sharp instruments, aerosols, glues and solvents to anyone under the age of 18. By purchasing this item you confirm you are the legal age and agree with our T&C’s.

Fiskars Needlework Scissors are the perfect addition to your sewing kit. I have bought many sewing scissors over the years and find these have been the best for remaining sharp and hard wearing even after repeated use.

Constructed with 13cm stainless steel blades, these scissors feature micro-tip points for greater visibility and are ideal for accurate cutting of small patchwork pieces, trimming seam allowances and for giving a clean, fine cut to paper. The high quality stainless steel blades will give you a long-lasting cutting performance.

The ergonomic patented handle is suitable for right and left-handed use and provides extra comfort and control.

We also stock an 18" by 9" size frame which is the best size for our cushion and stocking kits.
