BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU START BACK MAKING QUILTS!!!! Several years ago, I broke my left wrist. Had surgery but couldn't wait to get back to quilting....and couldn't bend my left wrist yet.....so I laid my whole left forearm on the ruler to rotary cut with my right hand as usual......and didn't notice that my left thumb was hanging a little off the ruler. Almost cut off the corner of my thumb! It was a deep slice but I treated it with peroxide, wrapped it in paper towels and then duct tape (to keep the blood off my fabric, of course!). All was OK in the end but it was scary. Being an addicted quilter, of course I didn't let that slow me down----but I was more careful. Just watch closely if you start inventing ways to get back to quilting!
