What do you call.....
If you use a piece of fabric when starting a seam and ending the seam, ( so your fabric doesn't get sucked down into the black hole) lol
What do YOU call these little bits of fabric?
I have heard:
Leaders & Enders
Starties & stoppies
Just curious

Anniedeb, You cut it loose?
If u use a piece as a starter, it will be at the beginning, then the last piece will run up under your feed dogs like it should when sewing, just let it run on out and cut it off.

One of those "well duh" moments! I sometimes use the strips to "get" the pieces going...then I would try to "remove" it because "it didn't belong...didn't think of just leaving it, or cutting it off! I learn something here every day!...and night!
