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.

Before I developed the habit of temporarily holding my needle in my mouth, I used to stick it in the arm rest of the sofa. I also used to forget about it there, and stab myself. Maybe we need to look into magnets on watchband like things.
@KittenBiscuits @Nima I know they make pincushion bracelets, but I would think it would be a bit awkward and I’d probably*still* forget to use it! 😅
