The other night, I was ripping out the
seams on my very well-loved t-shirt so I could use the pieces as a pattern to make
more shirts like it (this t-shirt is at least 4 years old and becoming so
threadbare that I really shouldn’t wear it anymore, but it fits so nicely on my
body. I have looked for it in stores, but it was probably discontinued years
ago). I was lounging in front of the tv, and each time that I wanted to throw
out a torn out thread, I would have to sit up to get the to the garbage can.
Being the lazy person that I am, I decided to make a little pail that can sit
beside me on the couch, so that I no longer have to do a sham sit-up each time
I want to toss a piece of thread. This can also be used on your sewing table or
in your cutting table.
