Does everyone keep a box of bandages in the sewing room?How many times have we:
Pricked ourselves with the pins and needles.
Ran the rotary cutter across our skin in one form or fashion.
Those scissors are sharp! They cut right where you tell them to!
Snippers. I guess so!
And then there is the seam ripper. It does gouge doesn't it?
Want to add to the list?

I'm usually good on the bloody bits but redwine is a killer too.

I am soooooo laughing!

I have gotten blood on a couple quilts while binding them, but I always mark the spots with a safety pin and then clean it up with hydrogen peroxid when the quilt is done. Then it goes directly into the wash. No bloody aftermath left behind.

Ugh, my bad habit is dinking coffee, while sitting with pets and quilting! I had just finished a quilt, all in 30's pastels, that I promised the no kill cat shelter. GUESS WHAT????? coffee stain. Praise the lord for Spray and wash!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your little sewing man hypnotizes me. I love him.

I don't want to jinx myself, but I've managed to keep the blood off the quilts, mine and my customers! I do probably need to refill the bandage box. It usually happens on custom quilted quilts, where I use pins to keep things in place while I work my way around on the quilt. I don't have to use pins for the pantograph work. No blood there!

One of the ladies managed to cut herself with a rotary cutter and had to have stitches. I happened to miss that day!

I also get the bleeding hang nails because my skin will get so dry from handling the fabric. I learned a long time ago that the best way to remove blood from fabric is with your own spit. Good thing I wash them after!

Good thing today was practice on my treadle, I put my finger where no one should, to straighten the fabric (under the screw for the needle) at the same time I pushed the peddle Yikes a chunk of finger missing and blood a pourin! It was a small practice piece as I was working to adjust the tension. But yikes it coulda been bad on a quilt! I have also poked myself alot hand quilting and spit it is most of the time to remove it, don't worry I wash them!! LOL

When I do prick myself, it's a reminder that I haven't died and gone to heaven (because quilting brings me to a very mellow place where all cares disappear.)
