I usually have a number of small projects or things I want to 'try out'.
I use my left over thread to make lengths of simple lace or experiment
with a new lace or produce samples for teaching purposes.
The lengths of lace or experiments get sewn onto hand towels. If the
lace is stitched all around, then you can throw the whole thing into the
washing machine.

Has anybody got suggestions for dealing with leftover thread from bobbins
please?
I currently have several bags with bobbins that would have been used for
various lace projects. These have substantial amounts of thread left on the
bobbins and the roll/reel/cone of thread used is in the same bag for
identification.
When I come to need the bobbins for another, large, project, what should I
do with the thread? Too much to discard and yet winding it back onto the
original roll/reel/cone will probably result in quite an untidy mess.
I promise I tried to look at the archives before posting what I am sure has
been discussed before, but they seem to be unavailable for now. On the
other hand, the list is a bit quiet so it will give us something to talk
about, and perhaps we will also get some newer ideas too.
