OK, I have finally learned what some of the acronyms are within my stitching community! Whoo-hoo! TUSAL is Totally Useless Stitch-A-Long, and ORT is Old Ratty Threads. I feel so much better knowing what these mean as I have seen them on everyone's Blogs.
Even better is that I have joined this wonderfully random crusade. Each month on the day of the full moon, I will now be taking a picture of the extra little threads left over from my stitching. I normally start over with each new project, but I'll change that now for this really cool idea.
