Big hugs to all those with quilting wounds. Even a paper cut hurts like crazy! :cry:

FarmStitcher, she is beautiful! I would love to have a Redeye with treadle follow me home someday, they are so pretty. Mine is a Sphinx. I loved taking my old ugly cabinet and refinishing it. I also have loved to see the irons and machine shine after cleaning them up!

Here are some suggestions as to what my treatment involved. First I was told to soak my fingers twice daily in clear water. I had 60-100 stitches in a 1 inch square area of two fingers though. Keep plenty of ointment on the cut, adding to it throughout the day, then wrap up. I used clear gauze then the stretchy wrap. I do not have any scars on either of these fingers. Good luck as your finger heals. Pam M I am glad it worked out for you, and hopefully I won't have a scar either. Maybe, we should all bookmark this page for the future because another of us will one day - I am sure - do just what I did and cut themselves pretty deep with one of those famous rotary blades. Thank you Nancy |

Can I use Kroil to oil a stagnant machine, just like I would use regular sewing machine oil? and are they interchangeable, can i use it instead of of plain singer oil? Thanks, playing with my new/old Necchi:) Jane Anyone else know more than I do? |

Nope you are right just use it and a little Kerosene in the oil holes to penetrate the rust and then you use sewing machine oil after that. Billy |
