You remember when you were a kid and you wanted the attention that someone in school was getting because they broke their arm or leg and everyone was signing their cast. Well, I never broke anything until....Friday. Here I am almost 36 and I broke my foot when I missed the last 2 steps of my stairs. OUCH!!!!! My boys already signed it (they thought that was cool)

LOL, not laughing at your broken foot just your story!

QuiltnNan 03-30-2011 03:22 PM

sorry about the break, but great story. save that picture.

LoriEl 03-30-2011 03:22 PM

Well, now you can spend all your time quilting! Hope it doesn't hurt too bad.

crafty_linda_b 03-30-2011 03:22 PM

OUCH..hope it heals well for you...you need to draw some quilty patterns on it *L* sorry couldn't resist saying that...Linda B.

(((HUGS))) Hoping you have a speedy recovery (((HUGS)))
Maybe you can make a quilted cover for the end to keep your toes warm? :D:D:D

KatFish 03-30-2011 03:25 PM

Yeah, I had the ugly pink one, a blue one, a green one, and a ugly red one. Hated them all. Hope you mend really fast.

sueisallaboutquilts 03-30-2011 03:35 PM

Oh no!!! But I do love pink lol :D:D
Heal soon!!!!!!!!!!!

NCquilter 03-30-2011 03:35 PM

Sorry about your broken foot. Hope it heals fast!

maryb119 03-30-2011 03:39 PM

Hope you heal fast and it doesn't hurt too much. The boys were probably thinking it was cool to sign your cast. They did some great art work.

craftybear 03-30-2011 03:52 PM

Get Well Soon and have everyone to wait on you

Kitsie 03-30-2011 04:00 PM

'least your toe nails were clean and you don't quilt with your foot -- Oh-oh, how stupid of me! I hope you're right footed!
((hugs))

I fell down the steps 3 months ago and broke my tail bone. no pictures. your welcome

Jim's Gem 03-30-2011 05:15 PM

Cute cast!! I hope you heal up nice and quick!! Be careful on those stairs!

Rntraveler 03-30-2011 05:28 PM

Sorry about the break... mend quick....

wanderingcreek 03-30-2011 05:38 PM

Hope your foot gets better soon. Apparently I broke my foot and my ankle at some point in my life but no one seems to know when that might have been. I fell a couple of weeks ago and thought it was broken but after x-rays Dr said no but there is evidence of previous breaks that never healed properly. I know I am losing my mind (at least my kids tell me that all the time) but to have broken my foot and ankle and not even know it!

roseOfsharon 03-30-2011 05:40 PM

awww , so sorry, but now you can say you have had a cast and had it signed!

Thank you!!!!!!

rushdoggie 03-30-2011 05:50 PM

Aw! Its a pretty pink, at least!

gzuslivz 03-30-2011 05:54 PM

I'm so sorry about your fall! I hope it wasn't a bad break.
I really think you should "quilt-ify" your cast. You could mod podge fabric on it; draw quilt designs; "Bedazzle" it. It's just screaming for personalization. Bless you!

sewingsuz 03-30-2011 06:02 PM

Oh that is awful for you. Get better as fast as you can. Can you still Sew?

dpparris 03-30-2011 06:04 PM

Hope you get back to normal soon.

BMP 03-30-2011 06:11 PM

OUCH sorry you fell, I fell walking my sons dog flat on my face and I ended up with a broken wrist, I had one of each color because they had to change it so often...LOVE your shade of pink !!

CarrieAnne 03-30-2011 06:33 PM

Ouch! Hope it feels better soon!

sak658 03-30-2011 11:44 PM

Sorry about your foot, I just broke a toe 4 weeks ago kept thinking it was going to get better, after 3 weeks went to Dr. had xray, not only did I break it, I split the bone, he taped it to the next toe, gotta go back next week, xray, hasn't started to heal, will have to go in and put a pin in it. So I'm hoping it will have started to heal by then. Getting a lot of sewing done, staying off foot as much as possible, glad it's my left one. Hope yours heal fast. Love the Shoe by the way. LOL

LMAO - sorry, but thanks for no pics.

Sorry you broke your foot. I had never broken anything until I was 50 and broke my ankle on my honeymoon in Las Vegas. Went out into the desert and got out of the car to walk around and take pictures of the various cactus plants. Walking back to the car my ankle rolled off the edge of the roadway and down I went. So painful.

Hope the boys can help you out and that you heal quickly.

grannypat7925 03-31-2011 07:01 AM

Hope you heal quickly. Take care!

marlene tarzwell 03-31-2011 07:36 AM

So sorry for your fall. I have to have different casts[every 1-2 weeks] I have surgery on the 6th for a rough Achilles tendon reconstruction on my heel[just above it] Will be big cause I fell almost 2 yrs ago and have been getting all kinds of treatments but no luck and finally got sent to Orthopedics and I need surgery ASAP. Wont be able to walk till at least 16 weeks. There goes my sewing for awhile... Good Luck with your Foot!!!!! {{{{{HUGS}}}}

Ditter43 03-31-2011 07:40 AM

Ouch!! I broke my little toe the day before I started my first nursing job! Not a fun thing to do!!!! :wink:

Emma S 03-31-2011 08:00 AM

Sorry, heal quickly! Can you use this as an excuse to quilt and not cook or clean?

Quiltbeagle 03-31-2011 10:20 AM

So sorry about the break and hope it mends quickly.

SewExtremeSeams 03-31-2011 12:13 PM

What? Moms aren't suppose to get sick or break anything!

:lol: :lol:

Get well soon. Can you still use your machine with your other foot? :-D

emerald46 03-31-2011 12:28 PM

Ouch...that looks like me last Fall. Heal quickly!!

eimay 03-31-2011 02:46 PM

Pretty!

Stitchit123 03-31-2011 02:53 PM

Hope you heal up soon I've heard a rumor that summer might happen and boys are hard enough to keep up with To finish off your new look a matching pedicure would be adorable :D

quilter1943 03-31-2011 02:57 PM

OUCH! I had bubble gum pink when I broke my wrist three years ago. It's the best and will definitely help in the healing process. Just take it easy and enjoy being a princess for a while!

moonwork42029 03-31-2011 02:57 PM

Maybe we should all sign our names on "tape" and let her stick the tape to her cast...now that would be different!

karenchi 03-31-2011 02:58 PM

I love pink! LOL Feel better...

Grandma Peg 03-31-2011 03:25 PM

Sorry to hear about the brake and hope all heals properly.

GrannyHanaDa 03-31-2011 04:13 PM
