So glad you're on the mend. I know how frusteraing it was last year when I broke my right foot. I was signed up to take a quilt class the 2nd week after I broke my foot. I brought all of my stuff with the help of my DH to the class with the intentions to just cut and take notes, but the instructor suggested trying to sew using my left foot, I was a little leary, considering I'm blonde, female, polish and over 50. But it worked and I was one happy camper after that and my recovery went much better when I wasn't frusterated.

Thanks everyone for your support and encouragement :)

Today I managed to fix my serger. It never worked properly from the time I bought it. Turns out that I had been threading it wrong. Ooops... So I made these covers for the dog beds.

Sure looks like the puppies are loving their new covers!!! :lol:
