I have a HUGE favor to ask of all my #StitchyFriends...

BASIC #StitchingSafety states that one should refrain from holding #PinsAndNeedles in one's mouth while working.

Unfortunately, this has been a #BadHabit about 40 years old now.

If you all would be so kind, PLEASE remind me periodically that my #Embroidery needle doesn't belong in my mouth while #Stitching.

My poor, sore tongue thanks you.

honestly I'm just as bad as you are if not worse. i sometimes will run them through a little fabric pinch in my pants I'm wearing to hold them for a moment.

my arms have been scratched many times for my stupidity on that one. 😅 my mouth might be safer place, actually. lol
