    Just lost my job, and want to keep my uniform shirts because they are really nice, and I was forced to buy them.
    Thank you for this tip! You saved me from throwing away an entire paycheck worth of clothing.

    Thank you so much! I am a seventh grader and my teacher asked me for some cash to help him remove stitching from his FFA jackets and each jacket would be $20. He asked me before and I’ve had to plug it by hand but it was totally worth 20 but just yesterday he asked me to do three jackets for $60 so this is a lifesaver.

    My mom said this is all I needed but never showed me. Thank you for the hands on simple to do.
    Using this method I was able to remove the logos from expensive company wear that I’ve purchased that I was fired from and will be getting replacement Embroidery for my self-employed repair business. Thank you ma’am!

    I just tried this on one of my baseball caps. Anyone who owns New Era caps knows that they embroider their company logo on the left side of the cap, which ruins the aesthetics of the cap. Everybody on the planet knows that New Era has been making Major League caps for decades, but still they put it on there.
    Using this method, I just removed that logo in less than 10 minutes, and it was easy. Normally it takes me close to an hour of picking at and cutting the threads, which is a pain in the butt. This method is also less obtrusive to the material on the outside of the cap. And I did this with a swivel head razor. I imagine one of the cheap, fixed head razors would work that much better. That and a pair of tweezers is all you need!
    Great technique, Rhonda!

FINALLY I decided there MUST BE AN EASIER WAY!!!!!!!! 😩😩😩😩YOUR VIDEO CAME UP AS A 2ND OPTION ON CZcams!!!!!! YOU SHOULD BE 1st 🏆🏆🏆! THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER!!!!! I have 7 letters left but I was able to remove 1 of them in less than 20 SECONDS with your instructions!!! TRULY GENIUS!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH (from me and my aching hands)!!!!!!!!!! 😃😃😃😃😃😃

    Thank you so much for this video Rhonda!
    I had a blue oxford shirt for an upcoming modeling shoot w/embroidery.
    I must have spent two days with a rip/pic tool trying to get those tiny stitches out. I was about to purchase another blouse until discovering experts like you on CZcams.
    Boy I'm glad I found your video just in time, a few days before the shoot. Thanks for the solution to what had been a very tedious problem.

  • @0ArmoredSoul0
    @0ArmoredSoul0 Před 4 lety +13

    I've heard of this method, but never tried it myself due to not having seen it successfully pulled off. Seeing it now, how quickly the stitches were loosened and how easily everything started to come out- OH. The PROJECTS I can finally get underway that I put on hold due to frustration!
    Thank you so much! :D

    Thank you! Have a really nice Nike NFL Hoodie, and the strings on the Nike Swoosh were coming loose from the outside of the sleeve, so I decided to just completely remove that segment of the embroidery. Albeit not 100%, it took me no more than 15 minutes, no damage to the material on the outside of the sleeve, and looks nearly perfect unless your really looking closely. Great video!
