I have a few very nice Threadcatchers, that said, I usually tape a small brown paper bag to my sewing table to catch the threads and stuff too small to ever be used. Scraps I just push into the bin on the floor. I love Eleanor, she's been a great inspiration to me through the years. I have to add Bonnie Hunter and Jenny Doan to my favorite quilters to learn from.

Eleanor was my inspiration many, many years ago when I was a stay-at-home mom with small babies. She's taught me so much over the years about quilting, recovering from unfortunate circumstances (read her bio), making positive choices in life & so much more. I fortunately had the opportunity to meet her & thank her for her inspiration last summer. she lives in my heart...and my sewing room

She drives me crazy when she comes and throws stuff around.......lol!!!!!

She is every where ... Can't stop her... :D

That's a funny story ! I actually have a tiny bag of scraps that Eleanor Burns threw over her shoulder ! And it's labeled as such. I follow her method everyday and vacuum later. lol I guess I should put them in a string quilt so I know alittle bit of Eleanor is in my quilt.. lol

Me too, thats my story and I am sticking to it. I learned how to quilt watching her on tv and so goes the threads and scraps. My DH bought me a childs rake to rake my scraps and threads on the floor into a pile for easier gathering and it works great. I am very grateful to E.B. for all she had on TV back then in the 1980-90s..........But I have seen your pictures on this board and you all do a great job=======!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
