Slow Progress

| Quilt of Valor in progress January 2020 |
I had some 3.5 inch red squares in the scrap bin, so I put on a wrist brace and carefully cut the neutral fabric to sew with them. It didn't take long to prepare the checkerboard border and add it to the center panel.
Yesterday, I managed to sew on the outer dark frame. Three more borders will be added to meet the QOV size requirements when my wrist decides it is strong enough to hold and use the rotary cutter.
Oh dear! So sorry about your wrist. Take it easy so that it will heal quickly. What you've accomplished so far looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteSo far so good but I'm sorry the wrist isn't healing so quickly!
ReplyDeleteIs it time for an x-ray?
Prayers for your wrist and your patience. This is a pretty one.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your wrist.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is lovely! I can't believe you got so much done.
Hope that wrist heals up quickly. It would be so frustrating. I really like the simple squares framing this. Good choice!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful quilt. I sure hope your wrist is better soon. It's so hard to not be able to do our crafts because of pain. My hands have been hurting lately and I don't know why. I'll be praying for you Nancy.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Another lovely top.
ReplyDeleteHope your wrist is feeling better soon.
Oh no. Wrist injuries......not a good way to start the year. Praying for you!!
ReplyDeleteI hate crafting related injuries and love that quilt.
ReplyDeleteHope your wrist is all better soon! Lovely quilt!!
ReplyDeleteLast winter I fell on the ice and broke both wrists. My left wrist healed well, but my right wrist (dominant hand) is well...wonky.
ReplyDeleteI found that the Creative Grids Stripology rulers support my rotary cutters and wrist making my cutting less painful and more accurate. I can cut strips and squares faster than with a die cutter and with less wrist strain and pain.
Oh, goodness! I'm sorry to hear of your wrist injury. Sending healing prayers your way and hoping you'll soon be ready for cartwheels. ;) I really like the way the checkerboard border frames that panel - it's going to be another beautiful QOV.
