I'm SURE if you are a seamstress, avid sewer or just dabbled in sewinghere and there...it NEVER fails...OUCH! That DARN needle, then the dripping of blood...Oh NOOOO not on that!
Here's a tip that I learned about 20 years ago while working in an Interior Decorator's workroom...
Take a REALLY long length of WHITE (don't use color)thread, preferably cotton, but poly/cotton will work.
Wadd the thread up into a ball, then put it in your mouth, sorry but yes like a spit ball.
Then, rub it on the blood stain, you will see it disapear and disolve the blood.
Bet you didn't know that your own enzymes in your saliva break down blood, only your own blood. It won't work on someone elses, they have to use their own saliva.
It's a nasty remedy, but it truly works!!
~Hope to see you Pink Saturday, enjoy the tip!~

Karen - I am almost - (operative word) ALMOST tempted to stick my finger and try this. But . . . I dunno. I am not a needle fan.
