Put It Away Or You Shall Pay
Don't put your fingers near the needle while sewing
This is a Bernina 1005.
This sewing machine's needle can pierce your skin in an instant, like the blink of an eye, if used incorrectly. A Bernina 1005's needle is as sharp as the tip of a knife. A precaution that you can be aware of is to make sure your hands are a good 1 centimetre away from the needle while sewing at high speeds or even low speeds.
