Choosing your Fraliz scissors & caring for them
Dressmaking or embroidery scissors?
Choose an 8-inch pair for cutting fabric pieces and garment shapes. The longer blades suit dressmaking, quilting fabric preparation and general sewing. For trimming thread ends, cross stitch and detailed needlework, choose the smaller 3.5-inch Flower or 4-inch Harlequin styles. Sizes refer to overall scissor length, not blade length.
Find a handle style you enjoy using
The carbon steel dressmaking scissors have a traditional all-metal design. Soft Touch dressmaking scissors have coated pink handles, while Harlequin dressmaking scissors bring patterned colour to a full-size pair.
For smaller work, compare Classic Harlequin scissors with Large Bow scissors, which offer roomier finger openings. The Flower embroidery scissors are a compact option for fine thread cutting. Check each listing for its available colours and current stock.
A practical pair for your sewing kit
A fabric-cutting pair and a small detail pair cover different jobs: use the larger scissors for your fabric pieces and the smaller ones for finishing. Decorative Harlequin and Flower styles also make thoughtful sewing gifts, particularly when you know the recipient's preferred size and grip.
How should I care for sewing scissors?
Keep the blades clean and dry, store them safely, and reserve your fabric scissors for fabric and thread. Use a separate pair for paper, wire and other materials that can damage a fine cutting edge. Follow the care instructions on the individual product listing.
