Curious.
I personally HAVE to stand to cut or my cuts are inaccurate but I've noticed that most of the ladies in my quilt chapter tend to sit while cutting with the rotary cutter and it amazes me so if you can do it, by all means do so. It is hard on the back to stand and cut for very long so I have to do it in short sessions but I'm not fond of rotary cutting and try to only do it for sashng or perhaps borders unless they are pieced borders and I normally do pieced borders by preference.
