Do you like neat and tidy or get it done?

I like the look of burying the ends of the thread, so I went and bought a package of easy threading needles. I keep one in my pincushion for easy access, and instead of making a knot, I just draw the thread tail in the reverse direction of how I was sewing, and leave about two inches of thread hidden inside so I don't have to worry about the tail strings working loose.
