I'm sharing my Amazon purchase because of what happened on our return trip from India. 😳
One of our travelers had her small, plastic (with the soft silicone tip cover) scissors taken because they were "too sharp" while another one of our travelers had her circular knitting needles taken. 🙃
Just because you can get out of the US with it doesn't mean you can get back in. And even if you've traveled with them before and no one said anything, it doesn't mean they won't be taken the next time. There is no consistency and we just do not argue. ‼️
I found an 8 pack of these safe, small, round tip scissors (for ear/nose hair!) on Amazon for $6.99. Enough for me and some others to be able to stitch safely on our way home from wherever while the sharp things stay in the checked luggage. ✂️✔️

These boots (and bag) are made for walking by Wendy Kennard took 3rd Place in the Quilt Creations category at The 2026 Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, England. Wendy says, "Inspired by the basketball boots of my youth, I drafted a bespoke boot pattern to fit a sneaker sole. The design on them showcases my favourite mountains in the Lake District. No self respecting boots would quite be complete without a custom coordinating bag!"
