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

I've told all my friends that before they close my casket everyone is to throw a little ball of thread on me. I always have thread on me and God won't recognize me if I show up in heaven without any! LOL

OMG yes! My DH knows when I've been sewing because there are little snippets that follow me around the house. I try to clean myself off before I go upstairs, but I always miss some. Our very dry climate makes it very difficult to get the threads off your fingers. This may be gross, but it works. When I'm done trimming all the loose threads off a block or whatever I was sewing I lick my hand and roll the threads into a ball with my tongue and then they go in the trash. Okay, I said it was gross, but it works.

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