    No, they don't fall off. Your thumb more or less holds it in place.
    All the suggestions given are appreciated, but many I have tried and nothing works quite the same. Guess I am one of those old dogs that don't do well with change!

I have also noted that ordering several at a time does not increase the shipping charges.

    I bought a glove at Wal-Mart (Pet Department) to collect dog hair shedding off of the dog. They work great, they're washable and clean up perfectly for using the next time you need it! JMHO

    Perfect timing with these suggestions! I am finishing up a quilt top for my nephew and his fiancé's wedding and I got super frustrated trying to get the threads off. It is a braid and bar quilt so lots of seams.

    I can't wait to try some of these ideas tomorrow!
