What's an ORT?


My friend Sherry over at Creatology had commented about my saving all the threads from my stitching  samples.  "oh no now you will have an ORT jar next to Nina.".  So I asked her what an ORT jar was.  She sent me this link.   Seems I have a few jars and more than one has some orts in it!


My weekend helper was as dismayed as I was!  I'm not dismayed about saving creative bits but I now realize I have another collection happening.  Jars!  oy!

Precious child, look at those beautiful eyes. I have never heard of an ORT jar. My grandmother had a button box. I don't know what happened to it. A friend of mine found a diamond ring in her grandmother's button box.

The face of an angel my dear Elle...she is beautiful. I bet she can arrange those ORTs on some fabric and help you make something fun. I see a fabric tray in your future...Monday Hugs OOO
