Do you have to check for threads hanging on your clothes before leaving the house?

Yes...yes I do... lol The other day I came in the back door having been outside with my little Jack Russel "Bitsi Boo." I noticed she had something stuck to her little butt... it was a gob of thread all bunched up and stuck to her like it was velcro'd... I cracked up seeing this, so not only do I have to pick it off of me but my little dog too... :shock:

When I sew I don't have anything on that is suitable for going out of the house. I have flannel pants and a thermal shirt that is my quilting attire!

Notice the ID "Covered in Threads". That's just how it is. My DH also calls me a thread magnet. But I secretly love the attention it gets me. Others might be anoid but for me it's a conversation piece! ;-)

LOL...I always have thread hanging on something. DH pointed to his sweatshirt the other day. "where did this come from?" It was a long piece of thread.
Today I went to physical therapy for my foot. I had to take my sock off..and the girl chuckled. She said "I can tell you are a sewer, there is threads stuck to the bottom of your foot."
