Really upset...

You say he was old enough to know better. He needs a good lecture and a few extra chores. Playing a "trick" with machinery, eventhough it didn't do physcial harm - THIS time - is nothing to let slide. While the "lickings" some were talking about might work for some infractions, it seems a bit joking to me. He has to understand that what he did COULD have hurt someone - like someone said if he does it with other machinery. Not to mention he COULD have ruined your whole project!

I am so sorry but....just think of the story you can tell after you are finished with your first quilt and everyone is admiring. Just be patient while doing the "frog stitch". Walk away at the first sign of complications, and you will do just fine.

No kids in the sewing room.
Look him straight in the face and tell him that he must make it up. Make him work. Let him know how much time you will have to spend fixing this. And don't back down.
