As a pediatric nurse once had a teenage girl as a patient who had swallowed a pin so never have developed that habit, keep a pincushion handy or a piece of batting to stick my pins into.

Also cutting thread with your teeth is a bad habit. Soooooo I am trying very hard to stick the pins in a cushion from now on. Thought I would pass this along. :-D
