The New Moon was on March 1st and I totally forgot to post a picture of my orts jar for the Totally Useless Stitch-a-long, aka TUSAL, but here's my jar as of 3/9/14. (Usually, I collect orts in a small jar all year long but I didn't do much crafting in 2013 so those are from last year too. It looks like a lot but I know the majority of them are from threads I ripped out because I changed my mind about the color or the stitching looked horrible or I screwed up the count on a cross stitch.
For more info on the TUSAL, please check this post at It's Daffycat.
My orts jar is sitting on a dish towel I'm embroidering with an Easter egg. I saw this Easter Egg SAL from Needle Knowledge linked on Craft Gossip and decided to stitch the egg on a dish towel, but there's a tutorial to make your egg into a puffy ornament here. (I'll have to try that some day.)
There's a second New Moon this month on March 30th. I'm hoping to post a photo of my orts jar by April 15th. :P
