    Another great idea. I like to bury threads in the middle of my quilts rather that do some of these 'quick' things that show on the face of the quilt.

    I just use an easy thread needle to bring my knotted threads into the sandwich but this method would work as well.

    Looks like good ideas - and comparatively "painless" to do -

    Clever. And available when I don't have a needle threader at hand. Thanks for sharing.

    I like those ideas as I've gone back to burying my threads. Used to just cut them short and add a drop of FrayCheck but never knew if that would do the trick or not so thread burying again. Great ideas. Thanks!

    What great ideas, as my hands are less nimble it has become harder and harder to bury threads.

    some interesting techniques to try. I have used the thread and loop method when a tail is too short. It works great.
    Thanks for sharing.
    peace
