What is an ant suture?
Normally, sutures are applied to a wound to bring the two edges together allowing the body to "knit" these edges back together. In South America and Africa, an early (and ongoing in remote areas) method of pulling wound edges together is to take an army ant soldier with large, curved pincers and hold it to the wound. The pincers are allowed to grasp the skin and contract. Once the wound is "closed", the body is pinched off. The pincers stay contracted and acts as a suture.

Can you use a Sewing needle as a piercing?
no A sewing needle is a sharpened piece of metal. If you try to shove a sewing needle through skin, you will cause a lot of damage, which will in turn lead to longer heals and possible scarring. When a piercer does the piercing, they use a hypodermic needle. It is a hollow needle with razor sharp edges on the point. They are designed to slice and separate the skin, causing as minimal damage as possible. When looking to have a piercing, consult a professional piercer. Piercing is not a do it yourself project.

What do you do if the fabric gets eaten by the sewing machine when sewing narrow seams?
If the fabric you are sewing keeps getting caught in the sewing machine feeder (or "eaten by the sewing machine"), after you cut it out, I would suggest taking a few preventative measures:When you are sewing narrow seams, keep the speed very low. Don't press on the pedal too hard, and don't try to sew too quickly.If you have a serger, serge your fabric edges first. This will reinforce the edges, and keep stray threads from getting caught in the feeder.If you don't have a serger, trim the edges, and make sure there aren't any loose fabric threads that could get caught in the feeder.Iron your fabric. This will keep it from crinkling up and catching in the feeders.If you can, move your needle as far to the right as possible. This will allow you to sew with the entire presser foot on the fabric, which will stabilize it.

Can you sew a serge stitch in a regular sewing machine?
Some machines offer a serger stitch; check the manual to see if yours does. The stitch is basically just a zigzag stitch, so it's like a real serging stitch's pathetic, more time consuming cousin. I use it for simple things if I have to, but my advice would be not to rely on it for any large project.
