Well...not really! But it is our first Totally Useless Stitch A Long of 2014. How awesome the New Moon falls on the first day of the year!
Welcome! Welcome 2014 and a new year of stitchy fun! Have you signed up for 2014 yet? See the link at the end of this post if you want to join in the fun.
My ORTs are mostly browns, oranges and greens since I'm still plugging away on Trilogy's Secret Pumpkin Patch. Yes, still...that's four months now, folks.
I cannot decide if I want to dump my ORTs each month or stuff the jar and see how much I can accumulate during the year. I have been dumping each month into my ginormous ORT jar for a couple of years and one year I tried to save each month in a separate jar with intentions to label each jar with the month's name. Which is a really cool idea but the months don't line up with the freakin' lunar cycle at all...hence our 2 gatherings in January & March while completely skipping February this year.
We want to see your ORTs! Leave a comment on this post with a link to your January 1st TUSAL post so we can come visit! If I hold a Totally Useless giveaway your comment will earn you an extra entry.
Wondering what a TUSAL is and why all these people are posting pictures of rubbish? Click here to learn more and join the fun!
Thank you for visiting my blog today!

Hello Sharon,
Happy New Year!
I have mine posted for the New Year!
I save my raggety threads in a baggie and when I have enough I use them as stuffing for my biscornu. Recycling so to speak.
Happy New Year and I have posted the first of the year :D
Happy New Year. I've had a full jar for the last 3 years and hope to have another full jar at the end of 2014. I have posted my TUSAL for this New Year Moon.

I haven't posted a TUSAL update in quite some time but I am still plugging along. I have been saving all my orts in the same jar since the 2nd year of the TUSAL. I just keep pushing them down to make room.
