I'm so sorry to hear of your injury, pain and frustration that comes from being separated from your quilting. I certainly hope we don't disappoint you with our tales of woah, frustrations with patterns or displays of accomplishment. Perhaps some our Chit Chat column will bring you some humor and delight until you can be reuniterd with your loving stash between your fingers... My arthritis throws me curves all the time and ammends the time I can do the things I wan to do. When this happens I read the QB and realize my problems are the worst on the QB...Smile we're loving you wherever you are right now and wishing you well soon... :-D :-D :-D
