Don't worry for your tendons, they'll get better soon.

I hope you'll be back at work soon.

Carol, Yikes - I don't ever want to have that problem! I am taking care of this elbow...seems a lot better since I read your comments, especially! : )

Hi Fox, I was wondering where on your elbow does it hurt? On the outside, tip or inside? I have problems with elbow tendonitis. It wasn't brought on by tatting, I lift heavy boxes and trays at work and stresses my tendons, especially on my right elbow. I went through cortisone shots and finally the doctor said he wanted to get in there and repair the micro tears. Boy was he surprised when he got in there, the tendons were torn off the elbow and hanging by threads. So he had to re-attach the tendons. I couldn't tat for so long. That was a couple years ago. If I tat for too long at one time, it bothers my right elbow. I wear one of those supports too and thagt helps. Now my left elbow is bothering me, so I am being very careful with it now.

Good luck with your tendonitis. Do lots of stretching and ice helps the soreness too.

Take care,

Carol

TattingChic, Glad to see I am not alone!

Thanks - you know, imitation is the highest form of flattery! Fox : )

Vinnie, Hi there, and thanks for the visit! The blanket is almost done. It is so hot here and it is stifling to work on it. I'll post the pic when done, knowing there a few who like crocheted pieces. This one is dead easy - but the design works for a child. Fox : )

Ann, Thanks for mentioning the green background. I am still undecided.

I sympathize about the heat you are experiencing. It is 30 degrees here tonight, and that is hot enough for me! Any more and I am absolutely useless. Hope you get rain soon. : )

Oh! that was one hard thing to figure out!
only to feel so dumb when I did get it right!!
I must have had a hundred tries before I got that!
I'm so much into crochet these days, nice to see that crochet blanket.
Luv,
Vinnie

You may not be able to post pictures of your tatting right now because of the ultra secret society you have pledged to, but I bet you are learning tat stuff that will knock our socks off! Still there's a lot to like - your grandson's blanket, your little tray and all the stuff on it - the elbow bandage is the one clunker. Glad it helps, sorry you need it.

I also like your green dotted background. It looks nice! I have always liked my gold until this week when the temps here are in the triple digits and it is SO dry! Gold just ain't doing it for me - maybe there is a nice blue...

Oh, not to worry! I think I did about five rings where the ring just unravelled because I missed that step too, LOL!

Love the new siggy! :)
