What do you do with all those clippings over time? Toss or use in another way?
Yes, the thread cathcers help but I still tend to have things stuck to me. My two friends that do not use the thread catchers leave a big mess and I need to vacuum for sure. That is how I noticed they do help even if they do not catch everything. LOL
I use tid bits of thread and fabric that are too small to stuff a big decorative fabric bag. I am planning to collect enough to make a big floor pillow. Some people stuff dog beds but I have no dog just lots of kids. I also put in small pieces of batting that are too small to sew together or repurpose for other projects.
