You have REALLY learned all the lessons until you've sewn through your finger, nail and all. It's a lesson you'll never want to repeat. Or dropped a rotary cutter on your foot/toe.
Not yet with the rotery cutter, but the needle through the nail bit I did while sewing on nylon net. And, I snipped the end of my finger when I tried out my new Ginhger(?) scissors.
