I might have to try this!!! Sounds like good advice.
I have MS and cant stand for long periods of time so sewing standing up is definitely out for me. I have trouble standing to cut and iron too. I keep one of the cutting boards with the ironing surface or the little portable one I found handy too. Its sits on table next to my machine.
Between the grandkids, DH and all the other distractions, I dont usually get too much time at the machine so I dont have much of a problem.
