My machine quilting skills are pretty limited, so they just sit there until I get motivated to do something about them (that's about one a year!)

And then I get to start all over with other hand!!! :(

Jim's Gem..... I have had both shoulders done too...one of them twice!!! (I slipped on a patch of ice, 10 days post 1st surgery and undid what was fixed, as well as made it worse. :( ) Give yourself time, and you will never know they were done!!! (The simplest therapy I found to help with getting my range of motion back, was a set of pulleys that went over a door. Do you have some of those?)
Hope your recovery time goes well.

I also decided to go through my stash this week and I have also made the resolution not to buy a single thing in 2010!!! I am to finish all the things I have purchased first... Hence I visited some online stores and I purchased 4 more yards of fabric to finsh one project and 3 more yards to finish another, and I decided to use that pattern I bought last month by purchasing the fabric for it... In my defense, the AU$ is good with the US$ and I am saving literally $100 by buying from the states LOL
