    Yes.. I usually have 'something' ready to piece for the next project, that way I'm ahead when I begin the next wip....

    I use a starter and another one when I finish sewing a block or blocks. The person that trained me on my first Bernina called it a thread garage. Actually saves thread and helps keep your points from going down in the machine and making a mess.

    I try to have 2 projects going at the same time. It does save thread and it is just easier than trying to dig tiny corners out of the needle hole on the sewing machine.

    I do if I'm sewing HST, otherwise I just back stitch.
