So sorry your hurt. It is painful and frustrating to max. Can you use your fingers on your right hand? Praying for a quick recovery for you. Broke my right upper arm bone 3-4 years ago and it was hard as I could do nothing with that arm, even shower, get dressed. Let us know how your doing.

Sorry for your poor broken body. Prayers that your recovery will be speedy and you will find something that you enjoy to pass the time until you are more able to ambulate.

You could invite the grandkids or neighbor kids in to color a quilt doodle on your cast.....
you could "zentangle" your cast, then spend hours adding colors your self, left handed, could take quite some time to decorate your cast this way.

There are tons of Utube videos to watch. I'm collecting ideas, too since I have surgery coming up pretty soon. Any way here is a place I intend to browse. http://clickamericana.com/topics/bea...s-of-the-1960s and here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...t135936-4.html
Then I intend to go on a utube trip. You find a utube video then you look at the ones on the screen and see what you want to see then after that one you find a different one. You never know where you will end up. I have been trying to find things for my mother to look at - she is 89 and needs to keep alert so I dig around on pinterest and find things she might like to see. There are gardening things to look at. If you google search you can find all kinds of quilting ideas. Some times I remember to save the place I looked up so I can go back when I feel like finding it again....

Just don't push yourself too hard! Use the time to read up, rest up, and heal up.

thank everyone for the well wishes and the great ideas. i am enjoying the scrappie quilt show . got many ideas for when i feel better. :)

Pinterest quilts are a great time alternative. Tutorials, antique quilts to modern quilts, table runners, mug rugs, wall quilts, placemats, so many ideas to pin while you heal.

Look at some potholders patterns on youtube. You may be able to do some small project without a lot of problems.
Good luck and hope you Feel better soon

Add my best wishes for a rapid healing. Before you plan any activity, you may want to quiz your orthopaedic doctor as to what you can do and when. Just remember that when the good arm reaches, the injured one will want to follow.
