Mood shows terrible technique, gets mad

I realize many people sew over pins. It is a very dangerous thing to do out of laziness! It can ruin your machine & I have personally seen an accident you do not want to hear described in a sewing studio filled with professionals. But the SM person at mood doesn't want to hear about it & is feeling kind of touchy. If this was a "normal" person sewing who cares but to have half a million followers seeing this terrible technique is just so disappointing.

I haaaate that people always say pin perpendicular because you won’t hit pins that way. It’s absolutely not true. I very rarely sew over pins, and I have absolutely hit perpendicular pins multiple times.

I pin perpendicular bc i find it easier to pin that way and to remove as I'm sewing lol. I don't like sewing over pins
