I have always just thrown the snippets, threads, etc on the floor by the table, then when all done I scoop them all up and put away. I say "away" because I have two wastebaskets in sewing area. One is for all the little scraps and snippets I save to stuff stuff with, the other is for trash that cannot be used for that. By not attempting to hit the basket, I save myself the headache of worrying about it. LOL Hubby has a fit when he has to clean out the rotating brush on vaccume cause it is bogged down with thread and hair. "I have long hair that I seem to be loosing".

lol.. i have done all of those, in the last few days!

who has a waste basket on both sides of my machine,plus a litter bag/cup holder and for some unknown reason I still have to vacuum when I am done.

we made cute little thread catchers in our quilt group that hang next to you as you sew they are really handy. Now i dont go anywhere without it.

Being in a tizz to get a project finished last night, sewed a strip tube together with the right sides out, both sides?? Frank and I had a lauigh together and then he started pulling all that sewing out for me. (Frank is my stitch ripper!) :)

Am I the only one who thinks we have got off track with this post.lol My problem isn't with threads, I used to work with Marabu (feather boa stuff) haven't used it for about three years but still keep finding it in the oddest places, even in my nickers one night when I was going to bed.

Threads on clothes are the sign of a creative person. :)

I gotta remember that one -- but what do threads plus lots of cat fur say???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

That you are a VERY creative person! I have dog fur around me to prove that point. :) :) :)
