I have three seam rippers, and none of them can be found.

Three. Two of them purchased because I couldn’t find the previous seam ripper(s).

The arm pieces to my superhero costume are complete. One’s a bit tight; I’ll just have to not gain any muscle mass on the left arm until after the party.

I need bleach to lighten a piece of fabric a bit, a seam ripper to unpick two metres of seams, and I need to find my interfacing and my glue gun. Thank goodness this costume doesn’t need a ton of sewing, because the little “quick-fix” portable thing Scarlet lent me is good for temporary hems and not much more. Next cheque (whenever that might be), a sewing machine. Absolutely.

But sooner: a seam ripper. Damn it.
