I think one of my problems is that I'm only 5' tall and it's difficult to find the right chair/desk height combo for sewing.

It has helped that I'm very careful about posture, sitting very straight, trying not to lean forward-but honestly that's really hard when you're sewing. If I do lean forward I try to do it from the waist and keep my shoulders down and the rest of the back straight and my abs activated.
Pictures of you at your set up, from the front and the side would be best.
