Depression has set in....

I was quilting away last night like most nights when an old needlepointing injury reared its ugly head again :crybaby: . My left deltoid has been hurting a little more usual lately-which I atributed to my hauling 10 bolts of new fabric into the house. Right now I can't even thread a needle without a dagger like pain in the left side of my body. Looks like I will have to hit the long arm quilting machine again in order to finish up my Brother's T-shirt quilt.

Wish me luck guys

Yikes, get that checked out. A buddy of mine let it linger, and he has never really been able to double stitch like he used to. It's all single stitch, and I don't have the heart to tell him his best work may be behind him.

Please go get it checked out!

Keep us posted on that deltoid, gurl!

Well wishes from here!

If i knew i had a lingering injury that could stop me from double-stitching, it would break my heart! :crybaby:

Get well soon! and like i told you, when carrying heavy bolts like that, get a friend or use a cart!

this is what i use

Always follow the RICE process

Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevation

Works for me after long nights of caffeine induced quilting madness... :thumbsup:
