Pinking Shears – Zigzag Scissors – Fine Art Print

Ever wondered about those intriguing zigzag patterns in fabric edges? They’re created by pinking shears, the iconic zigzag scissors that prevent fabric from fraying. These nostalgic tools, often found in sewing kits like the one from my childhood, hold a special charm for craft enthusiasts and artists alike.

My fascination with pinking shears began with my mum’s sewing box, a treasure trove of tools and memories. These scissors, designed for practicality, have inspired countless creative projects, including my latest artwork.

Fun fact: despite their name, “pinking” doesn’t relate to the colour pink. The term comes from an old word meaning “to cut in a scalloped or serrated pattern.”

For craft lovers and modern art enthusiasts, my unframed giclée print “Pinking Shears v.2” celebrates the beauty and functionality of these unique tools. Available in versatile sizes—A5, A4, A3, and A2—it’s perfect for any space or decor style.

Each print is hand-signed and thoughtfully packaged in acid-free tissue paper and durable card sleeves or tubes for pristine delivery.

Whether you’re a craft aficionado or someone who appreciates the artistry of everyday tools, this print adds creativity and warmth to your home. Order your exclusive artwork today to transform your space with color, craftsmanship, and a touch of nostalgia.

Let “Pinking Shears v.2” inspire your creative journey and honor the tools that connect us to generations of artistry.

I went to art college back in the 1970s, where I received a BA 1st (Hons) in Fine Art before completing an MA at the Royal College of Art in the film school. I then worked in film and video production and finally the education sector before early retirement.The main influences on me, during these early years, were the artists, such as Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg and Jim Dine. The New York scene seemed to combine and challenge what art, performance and film could be in a way that has left a permanent mark on my psyche. This cocktail of Pop Art imagery and Abstract Expressionist mark-making seems to be where I feel most comfortable.
