Clips instead of straight pins has been one of the biggest helps for me. I have termors so pins are a hazard for me.
The fibromyalgia is the pits , the legs,arms,shoulders and wrist suffer most. all of the suggestions are most of what I found worked for me
in finding what helps when cutting ,ironing and sewing. You just learn what helps you.
Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one out there that suffers to quilt.
