Thread tails.
Share
Unless I've changed the thread or a needle, I never hang on to the thread tails when I start sewing.
Because I never have thread tails.
I chain piece everything.
And I sew through scraps at the end of a run of chain piecing.
My sewing machine, when not in use, looks soomething like this:
This started because my old machine's tension would go nuts if I proceeded in any other manner.
Now I can't imagine going back.
No holding thread tails. No trimming of dangling threads.
Also, it puts those little scraps to use before they hit the trash bin!
Am I the only one?
