Those rejected were stuck into pieces of paper and placed in the rubbish bin. I still do something like that, but try to do it as I work rather than as a special event. I place the paper with the pins (or needles) in the recycling bin.

Thanks for raising the matter - it's interesting.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05076197012454643657noreply@blogger.com
