Best Brand Sewing Shears for Beginners

Best Brand Sewing Shears for Beginners

Since you are a beginner just learning to sew, you are right to get information about what are the Best Brand Sewing Shears for Beginners. I have news for you: There are several name brand sewing scissors that could rate as ‘best brand sewing shears’. (See my choices below…..)

Sewing Shears for Beginners

Amy’s TOP CHOICE for BEST BRAND SEWING SHEARS

F.A.Q– What is the difference between SCISSORS and SHEARS?

The two big differences between scissors and shears are the shape of the Handles, and the Length of the Blades.

The handles on scissors are both round; upper handle is for thumb and lower handle is for a finger.

Gingher Sewing Scissors vs. Shears

The handles on shears are more roomy and comfortable for fabric cutting repetition. The upper handle is for your thumb and the lower handle is for multiple fingers, which helps with better control.

The length on Sewing Shears is usually 7″ and longer.

Gingher is a VERY well-known quality name brand! You just can’t go wrong choosing this best brand sewing shear for a Beginner. Other great sewing scissor/shear brands I’ve used and recommend are Fiskars and the latest is Tula Pink. (I have heard other people recommend KAI but have not tried them yet)

Did you happen to notice something about Sewing Shears? They have bent handles which allows the blades to stay flat on the cutting surface helping to keep the fabric to stay as still as possible while cutting.

Reasons to invest in a QUALITY Sewing Shear

–Heavy Duty and Durability

–Classic & Traditional-Pass down to future generations (I have a pair from my grandma-VERY SPECIAL!)

–Long Lasting Quality

INVEST in your sewing scissors, take care of them and they will last you a L…O….N…..G time!

I’ve had a pair of Gingher shears for 20+ years now and have not had them sharpened yet (although they could use some TLC and I’d probably be pretty surprised at how sharp they are after sharpening) I still find them sharp now!😉
