That's exactly what I do, dunster. Works like a charm and I get beautiful thread trash to use as embellishments on art quilts. :D
That is so impressive. You are taking recycling to its highest form, creating art from "thread trash". (And I love that term.) I actually save my threads and tiny scraps and bring them to my guild, which donates them to something called a "bale" - not sure how that ends up being used, but at least it's not at a landfill. But using the threads - never occurred to me!
