Was at Skeetersmom's house last week helping her cut some scraps into squares. We were working in the same small space and I put my rotary cutter down for a moment. Fabric got moved and long story short, I went to grab my rotary cutter at the same time she went to cute a piece. You guess it, my finger came in contact with her rotary cutter. Good news is that I didn't bleed on any of the fabric (lol). It's all healed up now, but a good lesson - wear full padding when playing full contact quilting.

Thanks for posting this. Don't we all get careless with rotary cutters (I'm sure there are a few who never do!) and the blades are so sharp. Glad you didn't lose your finger!!

Ahh, if we could show you that most of have rotary blade scars. . .

Another word of advice...always wear shoes when using your cutter. Makes nasty cut on top of foot when dropped.

Barbara may decide to never enter my sewing domain ever again!
I don't think she trusts me anymore...........

On a brighter note, that gave her an excuse to not do dishes for a while, and we all need a valid excuse once in a while.
