Be careful with a rotary cutter!
It finally happened...as I was zipping along trimming my quilt blocks for the quilt,my hand slipped just a bit too close to the edge of the ruler and,
OUCH! ...a little slice of the side of my index finger...
G O N E!
Needless to say, I have kept my finger bandaged this week ... and have not done any more cutting, YET. I will get back on the "rotary cutter horse" and do it again!! I'm thinking a pair of close fitting rubber garden gloves -- not used for gardening yet, of course -- will be a good deterrent from this happening again!
I have had fun, though beginning to lay out the design. It is exciting to see a quilt take form!
The top is on the side in the pictures -- but you get the point either way! |
Oh, this is just sooooo pretty! I love it, and I'm so happy that you just had a "wake-up" injury and nothing too serious! I hope it happened far away from the white fabrics, too!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Amy. Fortunately, the fabric stayed clear!
