It has been raining like cats and dogs but gives me the excuse to quilt instead of gardening. So here are a two of three charity quilts that I got done this month so far. I did another one that was red and green blocks with a dark green back ground but I forgot to take a picture. 
I sewed my thumb binding a quilt that I gave my daughter. I was lucky it wasn't to bad but it hurt like the dickens. My husband had to fix me up because I was shaking so bad I couldn't put a bandage on.
And then a few days later I sewed my ruler foot on my long arm and now I can't get the needle out. Good thing I have more than one foot and I am glad it wasn't my thumb. Any ideas on how to get it out or should I just break if off and use it with the piece struck in it?
I love these colors and I had a request for a quilt using them. I am going to use the tube method and make a Summer in the Park quilt from a Missouri Star Tutorial that I watched. So stay tuned.
Ouch! Glad your sewing mishaps weren't worse. Pliers for the needle and the foot? Keep your fingers AWAY from that needle.
ReplyDeleteI am a little gun shy and my fingers are staying far away.
DeleteIs that the tip of the needle sticking out of the ruler foot? I would try pliers first. If the top breaks off, then try pulling the tip out from the bottom.
ReplyDeleteYes it is the tip and I have tried to pull it out but I am not strong enough to get it to come out. I probably will have to get my husband to do it.
DeleteYou are one busy gal...sorry about your finger
