AAAAAArrrrrrrggggggghhhhhh!!!!

Having a minor setback. I can't stitch for a couple of days cos I sliced my thumb open in an awkward place n can't get a plaster to stick.

Have bought cutters to make my own aperture cards and sliced it on the blade when i took the cover off!! Blood everywhere. Not good!!

Oh no. That is a shame. I have done a similar thing in the past.

Nettie, sorry about the setback. Take care with the cut, they can get nasty very quickly. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Have some

, you'll feel better.

Ooooh, nasty. Can you cover it with a bit of cotton lint and micropore tape? (I swear by micropore ever since I did the West Highland Way: held my feet together.)

Oh, what a pity! Hope it soon recovers!

Poor Nettie, I'm totally in sympathy!
I have a sore thumb too ...
Mine was self inflicted ~ I put my thumb into my dogs mouth!! Ouch!

Thanks guys. I looked for my micropore I couldn't find it. Managed to find a plaster that will stick now.Still can't stitch cos it is right on the place where I hold the hoop. Oh well I can catch up with a book instead n the sunshine.

Hope it gets better soon, Nettie -- meanwhile take advantage of the lovely weather and have a nice relaxing read in the garden (or on the balcony, or in the park)

Ouch, nettie. Hope it is better soon

Thanks all thumb has now started to heal so should be stitching quite quickly. I will be very careful next time I make a card myself.

Glad it is on the mend. I don't like sharp things

Glad you're thumb is improving, you don't want to miss out on too much valuable stitching time!

The problem with getting close to finishing is I start to look around for the next project in fact I have narrowed it down to two already!!
