Don't hold your breath, seriously, relax and breathe and keep your shoulders down and loose.<br />2. Use those knit gardening gloves with the rubber dots on the fingers.

I can't wait to see!<br /><br />Oh, and if you actually grab a hunk of quilt with one hand it is easier to move and helps with the soreness!
