well, yall think u got it bad? take a look at my setup. i took out my kitchen table and built my own sewing table - a piece of plywood 20" wide and 8 ft. long, bolted it to the wall and this is my sewing space. i cut out on the dining room table. i piece and such on this setup, but take my janome 6600 to the dining room table to do the free motion quilting. and i agree it is hard on ones shoulders and such but a person has gotta do what they gotta do to get by. my kids are grown and my husband passed away so i can pretty much do what i want anywhere i want. i don't cook much and if i do, i eat on a tv tray at the computer, lol. i'm a mess but nobody has to put up with it but me. i couldn't afford a big setup for quilting even if i did have the room and i'm too old (72) to invest lots of money in it anyhow, it would have to be put on a charge card and i don't want any debts either. so i'm kinda stuck with the setup that i have and it works for me.
cheap but works
