Glad you didn't inhale that needle, too! One time I was startled while I had a mouth full of pins and did inhale......luckily the pins didn't get swallowed! I always have my sewing machine facing into the room now........don't want anyone sneaking up on me again.
When re threading my needle I always put the needle in my sweatpant or jeans leg, whichever I'm wearing. I learned a long time ago not to put it in my mouth...:o
Sandy, eeek! Didn't think of that but really, glad you didn't take a deep breath. (shudders thinking of it)
OH MY I know the feeling very well....pin or needle in the foot or....stuck in the lip!!!!! OUCH!!!!!!!
Ouch! Y'all are making me flinch!
Lol you picked the wrong time to sneeze. Looks like you need a big magnet.
I don't hand quilt, but I do tack down the binding by hand. I load my needles and stick them in the arm rest of the chair, but sometimes they are hard to see. Maybe you need one of those magnetic wands to sweep over your couch?
I was sitting out on the deck bottom step last week and had a needle in my mouth while rethreading. Yep, opened my yak-hole and dropped my needle in the grass. I couldn't find it where it dropped in the grass. Since I'm always barefoot, I'm sure I'll find it one of these days...
I have stepped on pins or needles before and the words that came out of my mouth were not good! :icon_tape:
Genny: sticking the needle in your pant's leg is a good idea.......unless your wearing shorts! LOL
My husband freaks when I say "I just dropped my needle did you see were it went?" Being we go barefoot in the house in the summer and no shoes in the house in the winter he just knows that he will be the one to find it...in the bottom of his foot!
