Proud of you David.

As they say, necessity is the mother of invention!

You sound like a very inventive person. Congratulations on your ability to learn and adapt. :D

Brilliant idea, good job!

Good for you, David! I admire your stick-to-itiveness. Age and illness force us to make adjustments we don't particularly care to.

I'm 82, in excellent health (cross my fingers), but just last year I learned the value of a walker. There were icy patches behind my house on the way to the garage that were really very frightening. A friend asked if I had a walker, and it really put my nose out of joint. I replied with an indignant, "No."

But later I got to thinking: my recently deceased mother's walker was in my garage. I brought it to the house, and started using it whenever there was ice. I quickly learned ..... six legs are certainly a lot steadier than two!

Thanks for reminding me to be grateful! :thumbup:

David, a great idea. I'm glad you found a way to get your quilts tied. Keep positive!!

Great idea! I never heard of duct tape on the finger but I guess that would keep the needle from hurting your finger over and over. I will have to keep that in mind when I can't find my thimble.

Thanks for sharing.. Thats great!

You are clever.

Clever idea and so happy you worked it out David. I am sure you have inspired others.

How clever and inventive!
