Top Tip Of The Day #2 For Anyone Who Sews

[mrs_overall]

If you are sewing and drop a needle on the carpet, do NOT kneel down on the carpet to look for it.
Trust me when I say that a needle embedded straight into your knee with just the eye showing is not a pleasant experience.

[ummmm]

I had a needle go straight through my toe once.

Isn't this your 2nd sewing needle catastrophe?

If so, give it up woman before you kill yourself!

[mallyh]

oh you poor thing painful .i was doing a repair on a zip last night whilst watching corrie and the needle went straight into the cuticle of my finger made me say a few not very ladylike words lol

[Tilly2]

Another tweezer job, mrs_o?

The last incident was me holding a pin in my lips whilst I had hiccups and it embedded itself in my tongue.

I never realised that sewing could be such a dangerous activity

[mrs_overall]

I am glad it is not just me who has mishaps. I was beginning to think I am jinxed

[roopower]

Sounds very painful, better take care so there isn't a third incident! Hope it stops hurting soon.

[ummmm]

I had to have mine removed at the hospital. They gave my an injection in between my toes....now that was really painful!!!

[Old_Geezer]

Oh you kneeded that like a hole in the ... well knee.
Sorry to hear.

[aelmpvw]

ooo that sounds nasty, did the kids learn some new words?

[Old_Geezer]

Good job the hiccup didn't cause a swallowing action !

[mrs_overall]

No swear words were involved...it was so painful I couldn't make a sound
