About stray pieces of thread: I just tell people, "I come with strings attached."
We purchased an under-desk mat for under the table where I quilt. It's a hard surface, flat, so easy to clean up.
I use a bristle brush, also known as toilet cleaning brush - that has never seen a toilet - to "scratch up" threads from the rug. It works.
