Yes all the time, just business as usual, I stick straight pins in my shirt sometimes, find them their all the time, maybe if I had bigger lta-tas] I would be more careful. I have some in the visor of my car because I look down and ,surprise a pin.

[/quote] If you're looking for friends, look for one who has threads on her. It's also a good conversation starter.[/quote]
The official fellow-quilters greeting is interrupt their hug to
pick threads off - each other! :D

No dog or cat hairs, just the annoying stray threads ! :)
