    keep going, patchwork is a great stress buster. It kept me sane whilst nursing my blind mother who also had dementia.

    Well everyone I am out of this challenge at least til spring.
    I fell at the gym a week ago thursday and promptly broke my right wrist sand tore the ligament . i am in a cast 4 at least 8 weeks and a splint 4 4 more after that. Hopefully by the time summer break comes around I;ll be able to do something again.

    Dear AkAngel, So sorry to hear. Hope you heal fast. Just keep reading the boards. That may keep you busy for a while :-) Sending healing hugs!

    AkAngel,
    So sorry to hear of your fall. Follow Dr's. orders with exercises after the cast comes off and wear that splint too. I've never broken anything but had both tennis and golf elbow (same arm) a couple summer's ago. Luckily it was my left, as I'm right handed. But still, heal fast. Perhaps you can plan what you'll finish first or here's a Good Idea : Clean out and organize your sewing space!

    I am sorry about your arm. now is a great time to plan your next projects and catch up on any reading. have you read any of the Jennifer chavrinni books? you might enjoy!

    I have finished 3 UFO's today! But only one that had more than 8 minutes worth of work left. I finished the "My Blue Heaven" top, a pillowcase, and the binding on a quilt that I started about 10 or more years ago!
