I used a seam ripper (and occasionally a scalpel like ripper) and cut the threads underneath. Probably would be very much like the skinning mentioned above. Good luck!

Ferret in GB posted about it once on her blog and had a link to it. I don't have the link saved, but if you are taking ALL the quilting out it might save you some time.<br /><br />Hope it goes quickly!<br /><br />BariAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690605936481154191.post-25863280051760616072011-01-06T11:56:23.793-08:002011-01-06T11:56:23.793-08:00UGH!

When I frog small places I try to clip the stitches every inch or two then pull the thread from the other side does that make any sense?Jackie Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16796291303408598342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690605936481154191.post-24136550344687526792011-01-06T10:34:24.263-08:002011-01-06T10:34:24.263-08:00Ugh!
