What to do with leftover bits of embroidery floss (don't throw them away!)

As you use embroidery floss for a project, you'll find you're left with small bits of leftover floss. These leftover bits of floss are often referred to as Old Ratty Threads (or ORTs, for short), and newer stitchers often ask what they're "supposed" to be doing with them. As is always the case in hand embroidery, there aren't any "rules" for what to do with these leftover bits of floss. In this post, I share a few ideas for what you might do with them!

What are embroidery thread bits called? Do they have a special name? What do you do with them? Do you try to save them for another project? Throw them away?

Turns out orts are thread bits!
