The needle was pulled out of the machine, and I could see that I had hit the safety pin. As I disentangled the thread and metal, I realized that the needle had won! It had gone cleanly and completely through the head of the safety pin!
Here's a peek at the quilt. It's lap size, and has been a lot of fun quilting in spite of the needle/safety pin battle. And now, I've run out of thread. This is the largest quilt I've made in the long time, and the largest one I've ever machine quilted, and I'm pretty pleased with the way it's turning out. I hope to have it in the shop by the end of the weekend.

Wow gorgeous. You must have a better sewing machine than mine - mine doesn't like big stuff at all. And hooray for the victor!
YIKES about the needle!! The quilt is fabulous!
I love how the battle took place between "peace" and "home". I actually laughed out loud.
That is great that the needle won! On any other day the needle would be broken or bent. The quilt is looking great!
That's crazy, what brand machine is it??? :]
It's a Bernina... aurora 440
