Oh to be in such good company--it is a blessing!
When contemplating a project thou shouldest put purchased fabric and pattern in a bag, lest thou forget and use too much of the focus fabric on a different project--never to be able to purchase more.

Thou shall not press with the Press-N-Cut board in your lap while watching a movie...If you do...Thou shall not set the iron on it...If you do Thou SHALL not tilt said board so that the iron lands on your left hand! :oops: I did this Sunday!

About the thread pulling out of the needle, I had been sewing for many years (and pulling a long thread out so it wouldn't pull out). One day I was looking up something in the manual and lo and behold! I found that if you Keep the take-up bar at the top, it will not pull the thread out when you start sewing! Now when I finish a seam, I just hold the thread and make sure the take-up bar is at the top. So simple I had missed it all those years.

Thanks for the laughs...
Yes, I've done all of these, with the exception of ironing in my lap!
