OUCH!!! Is your tetanus shot up to date? My Mother did that when I was a little girl and I can still remember it like it was yesterday.
I hope your finger isn't too painful! :cry:

OMG, my finger hurts just thinking about it. I'm glad you got the bag finished though.

I did that when I was first learning to sew. My mother had told me not to use the sewing machine unless she was sitting beside me. Well, we all know what 9 year olds will do...or at least this one. While I was screaming like crazy, my mother unscrewed the part that holds the needle, and here came my dad with the pliers. Yes, it hurt badly. But it taught me a lesson that I remember to this day. At least I've never heard of anyone doing it twice.

Wet the blood stains with peroxide and press it with an absorbent cloth, more than once till it comes clean with a white cloth. Or cold water, NEVER hot.
