I did that twice and it really really hurts, my nail has never grown proper since and when it gets a certain length it splits down the middle. I was told if your not careful how you pull the needle out you can cause nerve damage. Hope it heals quickly best wishes suelyn

They say you can not claim to be a sewer until you have achieved putting the needle through your finger. Hope it gets better soon.

Looks like everyone forgot how to leave flowers again. I left one for you even you didn't leave them for others. Lots of 0's and 1's again.

Ouch! I feel your pain. I did the same thing only on a industrial machine that has a higher SPM than home machines and the needle going in didn't hurt as bad as the coming out. Hope you are up to date with you tetnus shot. Hugs & Stitches, Liz

Can just hear all those swear words pouring out, not a good feeling I am sure - remember my mom doing that way back when and the needle breaking off in her nail and having to go to the Dr to have him pull out the tip of the needle which was embeded in her finger ----and this was not an electric machine like we have today...take care Cindy ....x0x0x0 hugs

Yes I had this happen to me once. It happened so fast I didn't feel it. I went into the lounge with a piece of thread each side of my finger to show hubby. It hurt more pulling the thread out I think. Shirley

I*sn't it amazing how much blood can come out of your finger. It will be sore for a few days. If nothing else it teaches us to keep our fingers out of the way. Have done it a couple of times but that was several yrs. ago. sorry it happened to you/Lillia
