I have been enjoying this website for some time but have not participated in the conversation until today. Having been diagnosed with severe arthritis in my left wrist and thumb, it goes without saying that I have really been hampered in continuing to do my favorite activity. I would greatly appreciate hearing how others have handled this revolting development! I find myself encumbered with a thumb and wrist stabilizer, complete with 2 splints. I've also received a shot into the joint. Anyone who has experienced the above and would share their experience and perhaps tips for working around this problem would be gratefully read.

Sending prayers your way. Hope you can find a way to at least quilt some.

Welcome to the board. You will have good days and bad days. When I was younger I went thru something similar. It got better and I still have problems with my hands.

Welcome! from Ontario, Canada
I have no solutions or magic pills for you ... though know that many have continued to quilt and found ways to do so. Hopefully you can get some suggestions! |
Welcome from New York. I have the same thing from time to time. When it flares up i have to stop sewing few a while and take Lots of pain pills. After a few days it goes away. I was told it was the way i hold the fabric when sewing so i needed to change that and it helped quite a bit. Hope you can get some relief so you can continue!!
