Happy New Year everyone !!!!!!

When I was diagnosed with PMR in 2020 I gave up the gym and took up sewing.

Now on 2mgs a day and virtually pain free , back at the gym and hill walking , I still love my sewing and continue to produce fabric wall hangings.

The moral of the story...........? well I do feel I am fortunate, but also, I suppose it pays to accept the lifestyle changes forced on us by PMR and do something different that your body can cope with.

I wish you all a Happy New Year and thank you for being such a great support network.

Thankyou Poshdog !!!I did have a couple of all day tutorials , and I watch videos as I find books hard to follow.

I have always been a bit arty and now I am retired I have lots of time which is essential !!!!!

Its a very time consuming pastime but very rewarding !

Its like painting with material !

So clever! Think I'll have to stick at the cross stitch a while longer to achieve anything as lovely as that! Pleased you're doing well too. All the best in 2023.
