I'll need 6,400 of these little babies for my finished project!
It's my current Sew-Between. I hate those dangling threads that come everytime you pull something out of your machine. So I keep a 'sew-between' project on hand. It needs to be a project that requires little or no planning. I just chain stitch a square, piece or thangle in after I'm done with my main project, and leave it in the machine until the next time I come to sew. This way I am always chain sewing and never have pesky dangling threads.
I learned about this from Bonnie Hunter, she calls it 'Leaders & Enders' but that is too much of a mouth full for me. I've always called the project that is continuously underfoot a 'sew-between' because it's the project that you are sewing between the times you are working on your 'REAL' projects!
Cheers,

I used to keep something in the machine to keep chain piecing-now I actually like pulling the long threads when I finish what I'm sewing-funny isn't it. I so always snip them right off though.
Oh my gosh! you have got to be crazy. after you make all those one inch squares you have to sew them together. I have a buckeye beauty as my sew between project but....6400???
