NEVER USE A ROTARY CUTTTER BAREFOOTED! a good friend of mine dropped her rotary cutter on the top of her foot ..didn't feel it until she was walking in blood. She cut an artery....then she tried to drive herself to a medical clinic, started feeling dizzy and called 911. Thank goodness...she lived out in the country, alone....EMS got her to the hospital in time. She always wears shoes when quilting now. We all try to remember to close our blades....but sometimes I forget.
