I have a quilt I'm supposed to be sewing together and it needs to be done by this coming Friday.
The cutting is done, but I haven't started the sewing.
Because I know it's going to hurt my hands. And I know I'll lose feeling in the half of the left hand that still does have "some" feeling. And I'm afraid that all the touchy-feely contact that one has to have when sewing large amounts of sewing will make the numbness move up to my elbows and shoulders, and what's next?
MY HEAD!
For the most part, most days, I am only numb constantly in my feet/lower legs, and my hands. When over-heated or stressed, it moves up, but it goes away when I cool down or unstress.
Knowing it's going to affect areas that are normally NOT affected is freaking me out.
I feel like I will disappear.

No thanks. It's done. 6:45pm and it's done. I started it about noon. And even wandered off a couple of times and forgot I was making it. Plus walked the dogs twice. I'm not quite sure why you were worried about it getting done on time, hmmm?

Have you done the ragging part yet?

Why do you have to do it?

Shad made it a little different that it started out to being. She started with a rag blanket and ended up with a beautiful different version that doesn't need/want ragging.
