After more than 40 years and millions of stitches on a sewing machine - I just sewed through my finger! The needle broke into 4 pieces, so just a small piece was left in my finger; I got away from my project - so no blood on it. I pulled the little piece and went to the kitchen to clean up. The 2 men in my house got a little pale when I told them about it. :lol:

Oooo, sorry! Make sure all pieces come out and your tetanus is up to date (if you haven't had in 10 yrs, you need it). But if you had a tetanus only shot over two years ago, you could get Tdap (Adacel) which would also protect against diptheria and whooping cough (pertussis). If you are around kids, it's a good idea.
