Default I've finally joined the ranks!

Yes, I can now say that at least one quilt was made with blood, sweat and tears...after the machine needle went THROUGH the fleshy part of my left index fingertip while FMQing! Fortunately the broken-off part of the needle went all the way through the finger, and I was able to pull it out - it was almost 1/2" long and I don't feel any other needle parts in my finger. I have an entry wound and an exit wound and lots of bruised flesh in there, but I've been babying it with antibiotic ointment and protecting it with bandaids so all is well.

But boy, did that hurt!
