Even with smooth hands it's sometimes hard to get rid of those pesky little threads.
Maviskw......in response to your comment about those "hard to get rid of pesky little threads"......I could not live without my pieces of batting right by my sewing machine and on my ironing board. Every piece of thread (ravels) that I cut I wipe onto a piece of batting - no more threads on the floor because they missed the garbage can or my thread catcher. Sometimes I have a strip of batting over my shoulder. And it's so simple to scrape all the threads from the batting when I feel like cleaning up. Try it - if you haven't already. Pat
