Once upon a time, on this very board, I believe I read a statement
That basically said, one is not *really* an accomplished quilter
unless and until they have a finger/sewing machine needle
mishap. Now, I will be the first person to tell you I am a fair
Sewer at best, but if I am to follow the aforementioned rule of thumb (
Arrrrrggh! Pun intended) then indeed tonight is my night. I have joined the elite finger stitcher clan.
Ouch!

Gotcha, huh? Not a lot of fun, but it happens to the best of us! Sorry to hear you got bit!
Love your pun!
Take care of that finger!

Sorry you got bit, however if I have to be bit by a machine needle while IN the machine to become an accomplished quilter. Then please do NOT put me on the roll call because I hope to NEVER be an accomplished quilter. Ya'll can keep that title!

Well, I guess I have joined the group as well
:D ...Have you ever sewed your clothes to the project your working on? I did that not too long ago..I was hand stitching away ..Got to the end of the thread to tie it off and cut it, when I realized that halfway through, my clothes were sewed right along with it :lol:

Been there and done that - sewed three beautiful stitched right through the tip of my finger. Ouch! Take care.

I have been sewing for over 50 years--clothes and quilts--and I just did that about a year ago. I have also hand stitched my finger into something--not easy to do--and that is something I do often. I keep trying to use a thimble, but so far no luck.
