Today I did something while sewing that makes it the third time I have done this. I suppose when you consider that I have been sewing since the 1960's that one is bound to do this. The first time I did this though was when I lived in Florida in 90's. I have since done it twice since I moved here to Roanoke.
I sewed my finger!!! Ouch!!!!!!
It really does hurt when you do this. And I am always amazed and stunned when it happens. Fortunately I did not bleed on my fabric. I was topstitching the front edges of my jacket and in trying to ease/smooth the fabric so as not to pucker, I just put my finger in the wrong place. Now I have a finger trolley and another gizmo that is designed to do what my finger was doing! Perhaps I will start working with them again!

Ouch, I know how it feels. Did this myself 3 months ago (for the first time in over 35 years of sewing).
ReplyDeleteOuch! hope it heals well and fast.
ReplyDeleteYour jacket is so pretty. That fabric and color are vibrant and happy.
You know you're a true sewer when one of your first thoughts is, "Oh no! Did I get blood on the fabric?" ;)
ReplyDeleteI hope your finger gets better soon! :)
Ouch on the fingers. I agree with Gwen, you were more worried about the blood on the fabric. We have to have our priorities, right?
ReplyDeleteOh ouch! I can feel the pain while reading your post - I too have done that before. And my first thought was like yours - did I bleed on my fabric? LOL! Hope the finger is feeling better.
ReplyDeleteOuch take care! Looking forward to seeing the finished jacket.
ReplyDeleteOkay I have never done this! But I do feel your pain and most importantly you did not bleed on the fabric!!!
