I have a simular proplem. I line my ruler up then ask my husband to just hold it in place for me. Do you think that might help?

My fatherinlaw had the same thing. He had a deep brain stimulator implanted and this worked great. It is something like a pacemaker and used a powerful maganet to turn it on and off. You are awake during surgery so that they know they have hit the right spot. He turned his on of a morning and off at bedtime. It sure made a difference in his lifestyle, might check into this,

I second all the ideas others have suggested. Also Friskars is putting out a new updated ruler with an attached rotary cutter. It might be safer to use. Keep quilting. Maybe there is some one that is willing to precut for you. Prayers and hugs.

What a marvelous idea Granny! I think I will do that today and see what becomes of it. I could be part of their research & development team, perhaps some of the other board members who are afflicted with this disease or any other movement disorder could benefit in the same way. Definitely worth a try, thank you.

My favorite part of quilting is cutting. I know, I'm probably the only one. I have many UFOs that are all cut out only! If you would like, I would love to cut for you. I could do it in a day or two. Right now my right hand is weak, but shortly it should be fine and I could help you! I would love to help you!!!

I would cut for you I like to cut and I work for free I feel so bad for you let me help

The concurrent thread "Great news from Fiskar" notes that Fiskar will be putting out their ruler/rotary cutter combo once again, and also mentions the one listed above at Quilt in a Day, but for $20 less! http://webstore.quiltropolis.net/sto...3&Item_ID=8117

besides slotted rulers with rotary cutters attached, you might check with your Church or Senior Center for fellow quilters to help you out. There are many quilters out there and I know they would be most willing to jump in.good luck. Katherine Hepburn had tremors of some kind and she drank!! helped her but I wouldn't suggest that and cutting!
I know I'd be more than willing to help |
I had hand surgery and could not cut ofr quite sometime. I found a person, (I think on ebay of all places) who did cutting for me. I had to mail her the fabric and directions and in a very short time I received my pieces. I thought her price was very reasonable. I can pride you with her name and contact information if you wish.
