Back to the topic.......... I agree with MamaBear :D I have big bite marks :D:D
when I leave the pins in the fabric then I stop short before and take it out..often I forget it...guess why I have a lot of bent pins ? The worst is when the sewing needle hits the pin bents it and disappears down the small hole....takes about half an hour and a lot of not so nice words to remove the pin. After this happens I try to be really careful to the time I step into the same old trap
