I like it when there are library stools you can perch on if you are looking through the bolts that are down at floor level- I dislike having to walk around with my head hanging down at belybutton height as I browse fabrics, but that is what I always have to to- likewise my LQS displays FQs in a unit that has three different levels- I can only really see what is in the top one. Ditto on notions- I was sitting on the floor last time!
I wonder how it must be for others who have serious mobility issues, and I guess lots of quilters do, given the typical age profile.
