Ladies, Ladies, Ladies,

I have always been very careful to store my used rotary cutting blades in one of the yellow cases they come in. When it is full I throw it away, case and blades. I thought I was being very careful!

A few days ago while putting away some new items in my recently cleaned sewing room and, barefoot, I stepped on a large rotary cutting blade. A new sharp one. I have no idea where it came from or how it hit the floor. It wedged against the old carpet and cut into my heel at a 45 degree angle.

I have new appreciation for my calluses. A new sewing room asset!!

I quickly adjusted my weight and the blade didn't go too deep. I am fortunate.

WEAR YOUR SHOES--ALWAYS!
