There's no such thing as a silly question! :)

As I understand it, confetti means lots of scattered stitches of different colours. In other words, there are lots of changes of colour and only one or two stitches of each colour. Does that make sense? Most of us hate it because it's so time consuming having to change thread all the time. Hope that helps.

Theres also this thread, Glossary Terms, at the top of the Tips and Tricks page. It has most of the commonly used shorthand and termonology used on this site
