I use a small (purse-sized) lint roller to grab the extra threads. Just press down across the cut side of the seam after pulling out the thread from the other side and lift, no rolling so I don't fray the edge of the fabric. Works great!

A couple of other things about Seam Fix: if it gets too much lint from the fibers on it and doesn't seem to pick up loose threads any longer, rinse it off and also, if you use the end with the point on it...or as my students call it the 'boob' looking end; if you had to rip and your fabric has a needle hole that seems large, hold your fabric in place by setting your fingers on each side of the hole, take the nipple looking part of the Seam Fix, and using a circular motion rub the fabric. It helps to push the threads back in place. You won't completely make the hole disappear, but it will be much less noticeable.

I also use the purse-sized lint roller to clean up the threads and I also use blue masking tape.

I have one too and absolutely love using it! Interesting I paid the same as you did and the other day I saw it for $7.95 at a different quilt shop!

I bought one a while back and really like it, too. Be careful though, it might try to eat you fabric edges. I got a little too close the other day. and it started fraying the edge.

Seriously, we're all like a bunch of junkies. We were having a class in our LQS, and the owner showed us her new item, and well, we all snapped them up, and we're glad!! My old fave is the stainless steel, but those rubber ends are the bomb, I'm tellin' ya!
