pull this needle out of my finger?"
Yes, I joined the club.
Lesson: do not try to smooth out the water soluble topping while the machine is stitching. Happily, it was a 75/11 and not some monster needle.

OOHHH!! That hurts!! We have a whooping cough epidemic here and hubby needed to get a shot. When he asked why my shots were up to date I told him it was because of all the sharp things in my sewing room that were always inserting themselves into my skin (I also keep pliers and a first aide kit since I could bleed to death before he hears me call him).
Hope you heal fast.

Thanks everybody. I'm not even sure it hurt, it happened so fast. I had to do the extraction myself.
Fortunately, no blood on the white fabric!
Raggie, ouch!! I hope your thumb heals quickly.

Hope you don't do it again...Ouch! I hate to admit this, but...I have done this too many times...I keep pliers in my cup with the other scissors. I also keep several band-aids with the first covering already off with a rubberband to the cup..
