Thanks for your tip.

Great tip!!! Thank you!

I never feel the need to vacuum, that must be terrible to have such feelings. :-)))

Sometimes the dust bunnies tell me they'd like a change of scenery though, so I carefully brush them up and set them on their travels in the Wheely Bin Express. LOLOLOL!!!!!!

Seriously though, your mat sounds like a good idea but I have one at the bottom of my stairs and it doesn't stop the dust bunnies from coming in. hahahaha!!!!

Wow how I can use trhis I have dark green carpet right through my house , doesnt show a mark at all buttttttttt threads drive me nuts . Thank you

I know what you mean, this drives me crazy but not enough to make me haul out the vacuum everyday (ugh hate
vacuuming). |I wear shoes all day so I do not spread the
thread and snippets (neat word) around but my DH comes into my sewing room to see me in sock feet and carries everything throughout the house. Maybe if I get a mat he can give his little paws a rub before he exits. Thanks for the tip.

Good tip. Have you entered this in EmbLibrary tip of the day?

Thank you for the tip;

Great tip!!! Thank you!

wow i might give this a try i to feel the need to pass the vacumn everyday.I sew in the basement so i do track thread everywhere lol hugs carolyn

This wouldn't work on the dust bunnies but I use an old paint roller with masking tape turned ,"sticky side out". I have the whole thing attached to an old plastic broom handle. Actually it does work for dust bunnies but fills up pretty fast. I'm saving my dust bunnies until one of them is big enough to saddle and ride. I like the grass texture mat idea, this could stop a lot of my snippets from escaping the sewing room in the first place. I usually do a ROLL of the floor (with the paint roller, I just had a horrible visual for a moment) before I leave the room.

I have thread all over the house. My dog tracks my threads also. LOL

Great idea! My DH says that all the threads he accidentally ends up wearing is a way of telling all who see him, "I belong to a Quilter!" LOL! Ya gotta love 'em!

To borrow the words I got in an email from a dear friend " I will vacuum when they make one I can ride on". Sounds like others feel the same as I about vacuuming. Great idea about the mat! Thank you.

I love my Handy Vac!!

Thanks ! People who do not sew, do not understand us)))

Thanks for the tip. I also leave thread all over my apartment and only vacuum every other day. Will not be doing that, however, until Monday, because I have a craft market on Sunday. Looking forward to it. Love and have a nice embroidering/sewing weekend. ***

Thank you!

VACUMN.... Girl wash your mouth out with soap. :))

I agree with Pauline - vacuuming is for the birds! My Trevor does the vacuuming for me and he always complains about the threads! I always wear socks in the house and I'm forever leaving little trails of them lying around. By the way, I love those mats we have them outside. Love and blessings Chris
